[PATCH] get_tree_entry: map blank requested entry to tree root

From

Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

Date

Jan 9, 2007, 16:11 UTC

Message-ID

<20070109161147.GA9313@coredump.intra.peff.net>

This means that
  git show HEAD:
will now return HEAD^{tree}, which is logically consistent with
  git show HEAD:Documentation
