The -e option to cat-file will emit output, after promising not to. We should take either 1/2 or 2/2, but not both. I'm partial to just documenting the existing behavior and dropping 2/2, it's useful to know if you passed in something that didn't look like a SHA-1. But if others disagree we can drop 1/2 and take 2/2. Up to you.
