Extract all files at every commit of a Git repository

Bash script to iterate all commits of a given Git repository and extract all files within each commit.

Example

With a Git repository at /path/to/repository and an empty directory at /path/to/output we can run:

./export.sh /path/to/repository /path/to/output

Export 1d9048853b8073e43e43e3250300a82f93d2f431 -> /path/to/output/1d9048853b8073e43e43e3250300a82f93d2f431

VERSION := $(shell grep @version $(FILE_TO_GET_VERSION_NUMBER_FROM) | echo | grep -o '[0-9]\.[0-9]\.[0-9]')

# `@version` is a doxygen comment identifier in the header to get the version number from btw, it extracts the whole string, then the last grep command extracts just the number from it.
