What I wanted to say is that the output is not easy to use in "split first, parse later", with sometimes counting number of entries in between. With current format you rather have to pass in one go, for '-z' format reading filenames from the stream. By the way, git-ls-tree -z uses TAB as a start of filename, while git-diff-tree -z uses NUL as a start of (first) filename.
