add task for git archive or git checkout-index (Trac #1182)

[phing-issues-importer]

Similar to having the SvnExport task, git archive or git checkout-index will export a git repo stripped of all the git folder goodness so that those files are not available when deployed to the server.

I would like to second this. The absence of these tasks are crippling our deployment process.
