a regular paragraph.

"repo info" learns a short-hand option "-z" that is the same as
"--format=nul", and learns to report the objects format used in the
repository.
* lo/repo-info-step-2:
repo: add the field objects.format
repo: add the flag -z as an alias for --format=nul
A new command "git last-modified" has been added to show the closest
ancestor commit that touched each path.
* tc/last-modified:
last-modified: use Bloom filters when available
t/perf: add last-modified perf script
last-modified: new subcommand to show when files were last modified
The flag `--show-object-format` from git-rev-parse is used for
retrieving the object storage format. This way, it is used for
querying repository metadata, fitting in the purpose of git-repo-info.
Add a new field `objects.format` to the git-repo-info subcommand
containing that information.

Other Git commands that have nul-terminated output (e.g. git-config,
git-status, git-ls-files) have a flag `-z` for using the null character
as the record separator.
Add the `-z` flag to git-repo-info as an alias for `--format=nul`,
making it consistent with the behavior of the other commands.

As part of the ongoing effort to consolidate reference handling,
introduce a new `exists` subcommand. This command provides the same
functionality and exit-code behavior as `git show-ref --exists`, serving
as its modern replacement.
The logic for `show-ref --exists` is minimal. Rather than creating a
shared helper function which would be overkill for ~20 lines of code,
its implementation is intentionally duplicated here. This contrasts with
`git refs list`, where sharing the larger implementation of
`for-each-ref` was necessary.
Documentation for the new subcommand is also added to the `git-refs(1)`
man page.

Similar to git-blame(1), introduce a new subcommand
git-last-modified(1). This command shows the most recent modification to
paths in a tree. It does so by expanding the tree at a given commit,
taking note of the current state of each path, and then walking
backwards through history looking for commits where each path changed
into its final commit ID.
