i'm aware of things like "git cat-file -p" and so on, but is there
some magic incantation to display the git object store
graphically/hierarchically?

  when i teach git, one of the first demos is to create a new repo,
add two files, stage and commit, at which point one points out that
that created 4 objects in the object store:

  * 2 blobs
  * 1 tree
  * 1 commit

but it would be useful to be able to *see* the underlying structure so
the class can be truly convinced as to what just happened.

  is there some way to do that?
