I'm not convinced it's needed.  cat-file does that to allow peeling
references:

	git cat-file tree v1.7.1
vs
	git cat-file tag v1.7.1

But the "cat" name might be too valuable namespace to reserve for only
this.  I have no strong preference either way.  Maybe the command
should be named "cat-blob".
