git: Select branch when fetching specific file

Question

It is possible to define a specific branch when fetching a file as follows:

git archive --remote=git@my.git.server:namespace/projectname.git HEAD:path/to/file somefile.sql | tar -x

This will retrive the file from the default project branch.

How is it possible to select a specific branch for the above file retrieval?

经过一番尝试和错误之后，事实证明这是解决问题的方法，例如有人要从develop分支获取以上文件：

git archive --remote=git@my.git.server:namespace/projectname.git develop:path/to/file somefile.sql | tar -x
