I think I have nearly something finished. Using rev-tree, cat-file and
ls-tree -r written in perl.

I dislike the idea because of reasons Torvalds has already mentioned
when talking about file renames and cvs annotate. And it also would fit
only this special case.

Having a 'git export' with real timestamps would be fun, but when I
think it over I don't really need it. And if I need it it would be a
matter of 20 minutes. :-)
