BTW, I just had a brainwave

Wouldn't it make sense to build a git-fast-export, which 
can be used to interrogate a git-repository: a GIT tool 
could run a single git command, 

  git-fast-export

and communicate with that process in a similar fashion, eg.

  object-type SP 0ac9f9cb54e7cf400453b85a3ae5f63813f5fdae LF

=>

  show-raw SP 0ac9f9cb54e7cf400453b85a3ae5f63813f5fdae LF
=>
  data SP 235 LF 
tree 76c9d63f83530851d911f6ead36e3899929e0cda
parent e3559e3c52cf006a6b3b03ec083ed658ba1941ee

ignorance. LF

this would make interfacing with Git from scripts more ergonomical, 
less dependent on changes in the UI of porcelains, and in some cases
more efficient.
