Not as far as I know...
Indexing git repos to store a reverse mapping of
blobs => commits/trees/tags is something I've been planning
as part of public-inbox (for the "solver" subcomponent which
recreates blobs from patch mails, I want it to recreate trees).
I'm not sure if/when I'll get around to it; and it's
space-intensive with Xapian, too.
