get_sha1() shorthands for blob/tree objects
This is a fairly straightforward patch to allow "get_sha1()" to also have shorthands for tree and blob objects. The syntax is very simple and intuitive: you can specify a tree or a blob by simply specifying <revision>:<path>, and get_sha1() will do the SHA1 lookup from the tree for you. You can currently do it with "git ls-tree <rev> <path>" and parsing the output, but that's actually pretty awkward. With this, you can do something like git cat-file blob v1.2.4:Makefile to get the contents of "Makefile" at revision v1.2.4. Now, this isn't necessarily something you really need all that often, but the concept itself is actually pretty powerful. We could, for example, allow things like git diff v0.99.6:git-commit-script..v1.3.0:git-commit.sh to see the difference between two arbitrary files in two arbitrary revisions. To do that, the only thing we'd have to do is to make git-diff-tree accept two blobs to diff, in addition to the two trees it now expects. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
