It uses the same regular expressions as -p and diff to find the beginning

Currently it will not display comments in front of a function, but those

Commit 431d6e7b (grep: enable threading for context line printing)
split the printing of the "--\n" mark between results from different
files out into two places: show_line() in grep.c for the non-threaded
case and work_done() in builtin/grep.c for the threaded case. Commit
55f638bd (grep: Colorize filename, line number, and separator) updated
the former, but not the latter, so the separators between files are
not colored if threads are used.
This patch merges the two. In the threaded case, hunk marks are now
printed by show_line() for every file, including the first one, and the
very first mark is simply skipped in work_done(). This ensures that the
output is properly colored and works just as well.

In the olden days,
log --author=me --committer=him --grep=this --grep=that
used to be turned into:
(OR (HEADER-AUTHOR me)
(HEADER-COMMITTER him)
(PATTERN this)
(PATTERN that))
showing my patches that do not have any "this" nor "that", which was
totally useless.
80235ba ("log --author=me --grep=it" should find intersection, not union,
2010-01-17) improved it greatly to turn the same into:
(ALL-MATCH
(HEADER-AUTHOR me)
(HEADER-COMMITTER him)
(OR (PATTERN this) (PATTERN that)))
That is, "show only patches by me and committed by him, that have either
this or that", which is a lot more natural thing to ask.
We however need to be a bit more clever when the user asks more than one
"author" (or "committer"); because a commit has only one author (and one
committer), they ought to be interpreted as asking for union to be useful.
The current implementation simply added another author/committer pattern
at the same top-level for ALL-MATCH to insist on matching all, finding
nothing.
Turn
log --author=me --author=her \
--committer=him --committer=you \
--grep=this --grep=that

If context lines are to be printed, grep separates them with hunk marks
("--\n"). These marks are printed between matches from different files,
too. They are not printed before the first file, though.
Threading was disabled when context line printing was enabled because
avoiding to print the mark before the first line was an unsolved
synchronisation problem. This patch separates the code for printing
hunk marks for the threaded and the unthreaded case, allowing threading
to be turned on together with the common -ABC options.
->show_hunk_mark, which controls printing of hunk marks between files in
show_line(), is now set in grep_buffer_1(), but only if some results
have already been printed and threading is disabled. The threaded case
is handled in work_done().

Colorize the filename, line number, and separator in git grep output, as
GNU grep does. The colors are customizable through color.grep.<slot>.
The default is to only color the separator (in cyan), since this gives
the biggest legibility increase without overwhelming the user with
colors. GNU grep also defaults cyan for the separator, but defaults to
magenta for the filename and to green for the line number, as well.
There is one difference from GNU grep: When a binary file matches
without -a, GNU grep does not color the <file> in "Binary file <file>
matches", but we do.
Like GNU grep, if --null is given, the null separators are not colored.
For config.txt, use a a sub-list to describe the slots, rather than
a single paragraph with parentheses, since this is much more readable.

Historically, any grep filter in "git log" family of commands were taken
as restricting to commits with any of the words in the commit log message.
However, the user almost always want to find commits "done by this person
on that topic". With "--all-match" option, a series of grep patterns can
be turned into a requirement that all of them must produce a match, but
that makes it impossible to ask for "done by me, on either this or that"
with:
log --author=me --committer=him --grep=this --grep=that
because it will require both "this" and "that" to appear.
Change the "header" parser of grep library to treat the headers specially,
and parse it as:
(all-match-OR (HEADER-AUTHOR me)
(HEADER-COMMITTER him)
(OR
(PATTERN this)
(PATTERN that) ) )
Even though the "log" command line parser doesn't give direct access to
the extended grep syntax to group terms with parentheses, this change will
cover the majority of the case the users would want.
This incidentally revealed that one test in t7002 was bogus. It ran:
log --author=Thor --grep=Thu --format='%s'
and expected (wrongly) "Thu" to match "Thursday" in the author/committer
date, but that would never match, as the timestamp in raw commit buffer
does not have the name of the day-of-the-week.

Even when running without the -F (--fixed-strings) option, we checked the
pattern and used fixmatch() codepath when it does not contain any regex
magic. Finding fixed strings with strstr() surely must be faster than
running the regular expression crud.
Not so. It turns out that on some libc implementations, using the
regcomp()/regexec() pair is a lot faster than running strstr() and
strcasestr() the fixmatch() codepath uses. Drop the optimization and use

The internal "grep" engine we use checks for hits line-by-line, instead of
letting the underlying regexec()/fixmatch() routines scan for the first
match from the rest of the buffer. This was a major source of overhead
compared to the external grep.
Introduce a "look-ahead" mechanism to find the next line that would
potentially match by using regexec()/fixmatch() in the remainder of the
text to skip unmatching lines, and use it when the query criteria is
simple enough (i.e. punt for an advanced grep boolean expression like
"lines that have both X and Y but not Z" for now) and we are not running
under "-v" (aka "--invert-match") option.
Note that "-L" (aka "--files-without-match") is not a reason to disable
this optimization. Under the option, we are interested if the file has
any hit at all, and that is what we determine reliably with or without the
optimization.

grep -w accepts matches between non-word characters, only. If a match
from regexec() doesn't meet this criteria, grep continues its search
after the first character of that match.
We can be a bit smarter here and skip all positions that follow a word
character first, as they can't match our criteria. This way we can
consume characters quite cheaply and don't need to special-case the
handling of the beginning of a line.

So things like 'git grep -l -z "$FOO" | xargs -0 sed -i "s/$FOO/$BOO/"'
do work now.

When we tried to find commits done by AUTHOR, the first implementation
tried to pattern match a line with "^author .*AUTHOR", which later was
enhanced to strip leading caret and look for "^author AUTHOR" when the
search pattern was anchored at the left end (i.e. --author="^AUTHOR").
This had a few problems:
* When looking for fixed strings (e.g. "git log -F --author=x --grep=y"),
the regexp internally used "^author .*x" would never match anything;
* To match at the end (e.g. "git log --author='google.com>$'"), the
generated regexp has to also match the trailing timestamp part the
commit header lines have. Also, in order to determine if the '$' at
the end means "match at the end of the line" or just a literal dollar
sign (probably backslash-quoted), we would need to parse the regexp
ourselves.
An earlier alternative tried to make sure that a line matches "^author "
(to limit by field name) and the user supplied pattern at the same time.
While it solved the -F problem by introducing a special override for
matching the "^author ", it did not solve the trailing timestamp nor tail
match problem. It also would have matched every commit if --author=author
was asked for, not because the author's email part had this string, but
because every commit header line that talks about the author begins with
that field name, regardleses of who wrote it.
Instead of piling more hacks on top of hacks, this rethinks the grep
machinery that is used to look for strings in the commit header, and makes
sure that (1) field name matches literally at the beginning of the line,
followed by a SP, and (2) the user supplied pattern is matched against the
remainder of the line, excluding the trailing timestamp data.

We already have two instances where we want to determine if a buffer
contains binary data as opposed to text.

This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include
system header files.
(1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and
xdelta code are exempt from the following rules;
(2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of
our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h,
builtin.h, pkt-line.h);
(3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h"
need not be included in individual C source files.
(4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem
specific header files (e.g. expat.h).

This lets you say:
git grep --all-match -e A -e B -e C
to find lines that match A or B or C but limit the matches from
the files that have all of A, B and C.
This is different from
git grep -e A --and -e B --and -e C
in that the latter looks for a single line that has all of these
at the same time.

"git grep --fixed-strings -e GIT --and -e VERSION .gitignore"
misbehaved because we did not notice this needs to grab lines
that have the given two fixed strings at the same time.

This further updates the built-in grep engine so that we can say
something like "this pattern should match only in head". This
can be used to simplify grepping in the log messages.

This makes three functions and associated option structures from
builtin-grep available from other parts of the system.
* options to drive built-in grep engine is stored in struct
grep_opt;
* pattern strings and extended grep expressions are added to
struct grep_opt with append_grep_pattern();
* when finished calling append_grep_pattern(), call
compile_grep_patterns() to prepare for execution;
* call grep_buffer() to find matches in the in-core buffer.
This also adds an internal option "status_only" to grep_opt,
which suppresses any output from grep_buffer(). Callers of the
function as library can use it to check if there is a match
without producing any output.
