[tei-council] git help

If you just want to see a specific file, and not checkout everything as it
was on that date, I'd use Peter's method to get the commit hash you want
and then:

git show <hash>:<filename>

which will open the file for you in less if you're on a unixy system (no
idea what happens on Windows). The command can also be piped or redirected
to a file.
