Get (Git) the last commit files into a zip file with folder structure

This is a handy command when working with Git.

git diff-tree -r --no-commit-id --name-only --diff-filter=ACMRT HEAD~1 HEAD | xargs tar -rf /d/temp/changes.tar

It basically takes all the changes from your last commit including the folder structure.
