I created a script for generating source tarball for release, with this we can generate a compressed tarball containing xgboost source code and all git submodules, but without git history. The tarball is meant to be uploaded to our release page, so individual who wants to deploy or package xgboost can eliminate git as a build dependency.
I'm not sure if we want to support this as part of the future releases and would like to hear inputs from @hcho3. I will come back to this after holiday.
