I don't think it would help usability to add new `--show-blobs` and
`--show-trees` options. The user interface to show this kind of
information exists already with `--objects`, and by adding another way
of asking a similar query would raise the question of how these two ways
interact with each other:
- Does `--show-blobs` have effect if `--objects` is not set?
- Is `--objects` redundant if we have `--show-blobs`, or would
`--objects --show-blobs` list all objects regardless of whether
they're blobs or not?
- What would happen if the user says `--show-blobs --no-objects`?
- Are these options mutually exclusive?
We avoid all these questions by just adding it as a filter.
Furthermore, the filter also allows future iterations which build on top
of this. If we had a combined OR filter in addition to the existing
combined AND filter, the user could say "Give me all blobs which aren't
bigger than a specific size PLUS all trees with a depth smaller than 5
PLUS all commits and tags". It's not like I'd know of a specific usecase
for this right now, but I think the potential of having such filters in
the future is a plus.
