Subject: [PATCH 0/2] cat-file --literally
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2015 16:36:49 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <54EDACC9.5080204@gmail.com> (raw)

These changes introduce a "--literally" option to "cat-file" to
allow us to read the type of any loose object, mostly the ones
created using the "--literally" option of "hash-object".

For now it works with the "-t" option as :

     git cat-object -t --literally <object_sha>

Can be made to work with "-e" and "-s" option in the future.

The first patch adds "sha1_object_type_literally()" which is
called by "cat-object" to print the type.
The second patch adds the "--literally" option to "cat-file".

These patches are in response for the patches made here :
