It was easy enough to work up the patch below, which allows

In practice, this is not sufficient. The blob filter must have an
opportunity to decide what it wants to do, not just blindly munge every
blob. The minimum is a path name, e.g. in $1:

	new=$(git cat-file blob $sha1 |
		$SHELL_PATH -c "$filter_blob" ignored "$path" |
		git hash-object -w --stdin)
