In order to do this, you must first mark the folders or files you don't want to put into the archive with export-ignore in the repo's .gitattributes:

/src export-ignore
/build export-ignore
/test export-ignore
/.git* export-ignore

Then you can call git archive with --worktree-attributes to ignore the specified files.

See: git archive
