I think the wording there is already mostly correct, except maybe make
everything plural (a tree -> trees, a .gitmodules blob -> .gitmodules
blobs, hash of that blob -> hashes of those blobs). We might also need
to modify a test to show that the current code indeed handles the plural
situation correctly. I don't have time right now to get to this, so
hopefully someone could pick this up.
