You could create a tarball with all source code by running the following
command *from the top-level dir*:
git archive -o tar.gz --prefix=wireshark-1.10.6/ wireshark-1.10.6 >
wireshark-1.10.6.tar.gz
(if you run this from a subdirectory, then you will only include files
starting from the subdirectory.)
This would be similar to `svn export`. If you have a git repository and want
to merge the changes from 1.10.6, use something like this:
# assume your private work is on a branch "private-branch"
git checkout private-branch
# merge changes
git merge wireshark-1.10.6
# equivalent because Wireshark has TWO tags for the same commit:
#git merge v1.10.6
