Hi,
When using "git cat-file tree <sha1>" to print a tree's content, it produces
garbage output like the following:
$ git cat-file -t c0cd1e4e1888be6a70d44476996ece8be1ab52a2
tree
$ git cat-file tree c0cd1e4e1888be6a70d44476996ece8be1ab52a2
100644 .gitignore%ëF7¦ùq¤¢«‚:“y—ǽ100644
COPYINGoø|Fd˜C—bW‘Èê;»_"y£40000 DocumentationŠ>Ý¢ÞÀŸçœ $ë#ºâü100755
GIT-VERSION-GEN
[...]
Using "git cat-file -p <sha1>" works fine.
(The above example uses one of the latest commits of the git.git repository)
Cheers,
Sebastian

That is not a bug. "git cat-file tree <sha1>" produces the _exact_
contents of the object, while "-p" _pretty_-prints the contents.
Ciao,
