Careful: there are those (including yours truly) who think that this
is a terrible misfeature, which only benefits people with too much
time on their hands and the wish to understand the innards of Git.  A
VCS should do its job without asking me to understand too much about
its mechanics.  If I want to know how it works, I will then go ahead
and read on it, or even (gasp!) look at its sources.
