Junio C Hamano	c9fc748f84	git-grep: fix 'git grep -e $pattern' handling People typically say 'grep -e $pattern' because $pattern has a leading dash which would be mistaken as a grep flag. Make sure we pass -e in front of $pattern when we invoke grep. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Linus Torvalds	5d9d831a51	Improve "git grep" flags handling This allows any arbitrary flags to "grep", and knows about the few special grep flags that take an argument too. It also allows some flags for git-ls-files, although their usefulness is questionable. With this, something line git grep -w -1 pattern works, without the script enumerating every possible flag. [jc: this is the version Linus sent out after I showed him a barf-o-meter test version that avoids shell arrays. He must have typed this version blindly, since he said: I'm not barfing, but that's probably because my brain just shut down and is desperately trying to gouge my eyes out with a spoon. I slightly fixed it to catch the remaining arguments meant to be given git-ls-files.] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Junio C Hamano	540bf654d0	Allow finding things that begin with a dash in 'git grep' Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Linus Torvalds	f22cc3fcbf	[PATCH] Add "git grep" helper Very convenient shorthand for git-ls-files [file-patterns] \| xargs grep <pattern> which I tend to do all the time. Yes, it's trivial, but it's really nice. I can do git grep '\<some_variable\>' arch/i386 include/asm-i386 and it does exactly what you'd think it does. And since it just uses the normal git-ls-files file patterns, you can do things like git grep something 'include/*.h' and it will search all header files under the include/ subdirectory.
