/*
The camget tool fetches blobs, files, and directories.


Examples

Writes to stdout by default:

  camget <blobref>                 // dump raw blob
  camget -contents <file-blobref>  // dump file contents

Like curl, lets you set output file/directory with -o:

  camget -o <dir> <blobref>
    (if <dir> exists and is directory, <blobref> must be a directory;
     use -f to overwrite any files)

  camget -o <filename> <file-blobref>

Camget isn't very fleshed out. In general, using 'cammount' to just
mount a tree is an easier way to get files back.
