I'd suggest git-archive-all be the package name.  The fact that's it's written
in python looks like an implementation detail.

Hello,

Yes please!  CLI executables should as often as possible be installable
with `apt-get install <executable>`.  E.g. `apt-get install git`.

And also, having "python3" in the name doesn't seem sensitive. We've
been using "python-foo" as source package names, and IMO we should
continue to do so, even for python3 packages.

Cheers,

This is an application, not a python (or python3) module.  If it was a module,
then I'd agree.  For applications, then language is an implementation detail
that needn't be exposed in the name.

Ok.  In that case, I withdraw the comment.  I think your proposed package name is fine.
