While it's clear to me what's going on, I'm wondering whether it's a
good idea that "git show" says "tree" in front of the unresolved
treeish, whether it's a tree, a commit or something else. I think it's
pretty confusing. Alternatives would be:
tree <resolved tree id> # here: 040...
treeish <treeish> # here: "treeish cab2c..."
tree <treeish>^{tree} # here: "tree cab2c^{tree}"
Cheers
