+v0.1, May 2005
+
+NAME
+----
+git-cat-file - Provide content or type information for repository objects
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git-cat-file' (-t | <type>) <object>
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Provides content or type of objects in the repository. The type
+is required if '-t' is not being used to find the object type.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+<object>::
+	The sha1 identifier of the object.
+
+-t::
+	Instead of the content, show the object type identified by
+	<object>.
+
+<type>::
+	Typically this matches the real type of <object> but asking
+	for a type that can trivially dereferenced from the given
+	<object> is also permitted.  An example is to ask for a
+	"tree" with <object> being a commit object that contains it,
+	or to ask for a "blob" with <object> being a tag object that
+	points at it.
+
+OUTPUT
+------
+If '-t' is specified, one of the <type>.
+
+Otherwise the raw (though uncompressed) contents of the <object> will
+be returned.
