It's really damn fiddly :-)

As a git guts hacker, I appreciate that puppet stores things in a
content addressable filesystem. But when I need to use the info in git
or in puppet, I refer to it by path :-) ..

Actually git has some rich syntax to say "the previous version", like

   git diff HEAD^ # the prev commit
   git diff HEAD^^ # two commits back
   git diff HEAD^^ # three commits back ;-)

that kind of glue is of enormous value.
