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¤¢«:yÇ½100644
  COPYINGoø|FdCbWÈê;»_"y£40000 Documentation>Ý¢ÞÀç $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
