I think it is a typo, and it should be CDAT, not CGET
(CDAT seem to me to stand for Commit DATa):

   +  Commit Data (ID: {'C', 'D', 'A', 'T' }) (N * (H + 16) bytes)

This is what you use in actual implementation, in PATCH v8 06/14

Documentation bugs are hard to diagnose. Thanks for finding this. I double checked that the hex int "0x43444154" matches "CDAT".

Here is a diff to make it match.
