Do you mean fetching the copy of a file as it existed in a particular
Git commit ?

This is certainly possible for local repositories, you should retrieve
the tree sha associated with the particular commit and then use
tree_path_lookup to find the individual blob.

It's not possible for remote git repositories, because of limitations in
the git network protocol.

Cheers,

jelmer
