Re: [PATCH] built-in tar-tree and remote tar-tree

Is there a simple way to retrieve a single object or a
list of objects _without_ any of their parents? If so
one could retrieve the wanted commit and the
corresponding tree and parse it on the client side to
retrieve its descendents and commits.  If so, the
number of roundtrips would be roughly proportional to
the depth of the trees, which would probably still be
acceptable.

Perhaps alternates file which points to _remote_ git repository, 
leaving all unused objects at remote directory, and needing constant
net access to said remote repository for almost all operations?
