texbundle
Zip only the files actually needed to build a LaTeX PDF.
texbundle compiles your document once with -recorder, which makes LaTeX
write a .fls file listing every path it opened. Everything under your
project root that was actually used gets bundled; TeX distribution files and
build artifacts (.aux, .log, .out, ...) do not. Handy for submitting a
clean source archive to arXiv, a journal, or a co-author.
Install
pip install texbundle
Requires Python 3.9+ and a LaTeX toolchain on PATH (latexmk if available,
otherwise pdflatex/xelatex/lualatex directly). No other dependencies.
Usage
texbundle # main.tex -> bundle.zip
texbundle paper.tex -o submit.zip
texbundle thesis.tex -e xelatex --include-pdf
texbundle main.tex --skip-build --dry-run
Run it from your project root, next to your main .tex file.
