BTW: how are the current tree objects structured ? Is there always
one big tree object representing the whole tree or can it be
splitted hierachically ?

Trees in the repository are split hierarchically, but its a flat list
in the dircache/index file (aka $GIT_DIR/index).

Good. That should allow optimizations for large trees w/o
having to change object formats.

What about splitted blobs ? Is this supported by the object
format right now ?
