Ah, I see what you were trying now. It's complaining that the data
and mode don't match up. See <mode> under 'filemodify' in the manual.
Something like
M 160000 :1 mycommit
should work fine, though that's a pretty ugly workaround for the
inability to do
ls :1

It's easily possible my patch has a typo somewhere, but the expected
output format would be
commit 6066a7eac4b2bcdb86971783b583e4e408b32e81
That wouldn't help?
Puzzled,
Jonathan
