[PATCH] ls-tree matching multiple paths
Enhance git-ls-tree to allow optional 'match paths' that restricts the output of git-ls-tree. This is useful to retrieve a single file's SHA1 out of a tree without creating an index. [JC: I added the test case] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
