A tagged blob:
$ cd git && git show junio-gpg-pub | sed '/^--/Q'
tag junio-gpg-pub
Tagger: Junio C Hamano <junkio@xxxxxxx>

GPG key to sign git.git archive.
This blob object contains the GPG public key I use to sign git.git
archive.
To use it to verify tags I signed, do:
$ git-cat-file blob junio-gpg-pub | gpg --import
to import it into your keyring, and then
$ git-verify-tag $tag_to_be_verified
A tagged tree:
$ cd linux-2.6 && git show v2.6.11 | sed '/^--/Q'
tag v2.6.11-tree
This is the 2.6.11 tree object.
NOTE! There's no commit for this, since it happened before I started with git.
Eventually we'll import some sort of history, and that should tie this tree
object up to a real commit. In the meantime, this acts as an anchor point for
doing diffs etc under git.
