In my own testing of the tar_scm 'exclude' feature, I found that the 
'tar' command grabs all of the scm's metadata (.svn, .git, etc.)

Tar has the option --exclude-vcs, which excludes these files from the 
tarball.  These seems to make the most sense for the way I think 
tar_scm is supposed to be used.

An alternative (possibly better) way would be to have an option to the 
source service that allows the user to toggle this option on/off; 
however I don't currently know of any use cases where it would be 
useful to have the version control system's metadata in the tarball.
