Overall these looked sensible. I have been resisting the temptation to merge this to my tree since around v5, primarily because I did not want to resolve merge conflicts with kn/cat-file-literally more than once, but I think this version looks solid enough that whatever rerere will remember will be applicable to later iteration if one is ever needed.

Hence I queued it on 'pu' for now; I haven't checked how the doc formats, though.

Thanks.
