A couple of fixes that I've noticed in passing.
Changes since v1:
* Drop 'i18n.txt: camel case and monospace "i18n.commitEncoding"' (it's already
  merged to 'master')
* Change "object ID of the object" to "object name"
Denton Liu (2):
  git-cat-file.txt: monospace args, placeholders and filenames
  git-cat-file.txt: remove references to "sha1"
