The old (new) behaviour was that it only shows trees if the object is specified exactly, and recursive is not set. That makes sense, because there is obviously nothing else it can show for that case. However, with the new "-t" option, it will show the tree even with "-r", as it traverses down into it. NOTE! This also means that it will show all trees leading up to that tree. For example, if you do a git-ls-tree -t HEAD -- drivers/char/this/file/does/not/exist it will show the trees that lead up to the files that do not exist: [torvalds@g5 linux]$ git-ls-tree -t HEAD -- drivers/char/this/file/does/not/exist 040000 tree 9cb687b77dcd64bf82e9a73214db467c964c1266 drivers 040000 tree 298e2fadf0ff3867d1ef49936fd2c7bf6ce1eb66 drivers/char [torvalds@g5 linux]$ and note how this is true even though I didn't specify "-r": the fact that I supplied a pathspec automatically implies "enough recursion" for that particular pathspec. I think the code is cleaner and easier to understand too: the patch looks bigger, but it's really just splitting up the "should we recurse into this tree" into a function of its own.
