 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
+THIS COMMAND IS DEPRECATED.  Use `git-archive` with `--format=tar`
+option instead (and move the <base> argument to `--prefix=base/`).
+
 Creates a tar archive containing the tree structure for the named tree.
 When <base> is specified it is added as a leading path to the files in the
 generated tar archive.

 CONFIGURATION
 -------------
-By default, file and directories modes are set to 0666 or 0777. It is
-possible to change this by setting the "umask" variable in the
-repository configuration as follows :
-
-[tar]
-        umask = 002    ;# group friendly
 
-The special umask value "user" indicates that the user's current umask
-will be used instead. The default value remains 0, which means world
-readable/writable files and directories.
+tar.umask::
+       This variable can be used to restrict the permission bits of
+       tar archive entries.  The default is 0002, which turns off the
+       world write bit.  The special value "user" indicates that the
+       archiving user's umask will be used instead.  See umask(2) for
+       details.
