+[NOTE]
+====
+Depending on what shell you use, you may encounter errors when using the `master^{tree}` syntax.
+
+In PowerShell or CMD on Windows, the `^` character is used for escaping, so you have to double it to avoid this: `git cat-file -p mater^^{tree}`.
+
+If you're using ZSH, the `^` character is used for globbing, so you have to enclose the whole expression in quotes: `git cat-file -p "master^{tree}"`
