NAME

       ostree-cat - Display or concatenate contents of files

SYNOPSIS

       ostree cat {COMMIT} {PATH...}

DESCRIPTION

       This command functions much like the typical Unix "cat" command, in that it displays the contents of a
       file, or concatenates them given two or more files. However, this command requires the user to specify a
       commit - a checksum or refspec corresponding to a given build. If you use a refspec, OSTree will refer to
       the most recent commit, unless you specify a parent build using the carat (^) at the end of the refspec.
       It will then operate the command in that given commit.

EXAMPLE

       $ ostree cat my-branch helloworld.txt

                   Hello, world!
