"git repo structure" provides a collection of useful information                                                        
about the information stored in a repo. In particular, it's                                                             
valuable for diagnosing performance issues caused by large objects                                                      
stored in a repo.                                                                                                       
                                                                                                                        
The current implementation of "git repo stucture" provides summary                                                      
information about everything in the repository - all of the                                                             
branches, remotes, tags, stashes, and notes. But sometimes                                                              
to properly diagnose a problem, it's useful to be able to get                                                           
information about the specific part of the repo that's exhibiting                                                       
a problem.                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                        
Add the option to specify a set of revs. If revs are included,                                                          
then the set of objects processed will be limited based on the                                                          
rev specification; otherwise, all objects will be processed.
Differences from v3:
- Remove inadvertent edits.
- Ensure that this is the right version of the patch, because I'm an idiot.
