Junio C Hamano 67f0b6f3b2 Merge branch 'dt/cat-file-follow-symlinks' ...

"git cat-file --batch(-check)" learned the "--follow-symlinks"
option that follows an in-tree symbolic link when asked about an
object via extended SHA-1 syntax, e.g. HEAD:RelNotes that points at
Documentation/RelNotes/2.5.0.txt.  With the new option, the command
behaves as if HEAD:Documentation/RelNotes/2.5.0.txt was given as
input instead.

* dt/cat-file-follow-symlinks:
  cat-file: add --follow-symlinks to --batch
  sha1_name: get_sha1_with_context learns to follow symlinks
  tree-walk: learn get_tree_entry_follow_symlinks
