I do not have that commit object, but these six patches include the
two commits that are %(raw) and %(raw:size), so I'll just discard
the old round that wasn't based on the atom-type stuff and queue
these six as a single series.

As I already said, I am not sure how %(rest) makes any sense outside
the context of "cat-file --batch"; I suspect it would make more sense
to make it easier to arrange certain placeholders to error out when
used in a context where they do not make sense (e.g. use of --rest
in "git branch --list").
