Patterns +are lists of one or more search expressions separated by newline +characters. An empty string as search expression matches all lines. + + +CONFIGURATION +------------- + +grep.lineNumber:: + If set to true, enable `-n` option by default. + +grep.column:: + If set to true, enable the `--column` option by default. + +grep.patternType:: + Set the default matching behavior. Using a value of 'basic', 'extended', + 'fixed', or 'perl' will enable the `--basic-regexp`, `--extended-regexp`, + `--fixed-strings`, or `--perl-regexp` option accordingly, while the + value 'default' will return to the default matching behavior. + +grep.extendedRegexp:: + If set to true, enable `--extended-regexp` option by default. This + option is ignored when the `grep.patternType` option is set to a value + other than 'default'. + +grep.threads:: + Number of grep worker threads to use. If unset (or set to 0), + 8 threads are used by default (for now). + +grep.fullName:: + If set to true, enable `--full-name` option by default. + +grep.fallbackToNoIndex:: + If set to true, fall back to git grep --no-index if git grep + is executed outside of a git repository. Defaults to false. + + +OPTIONS +------- +--cached:: + Instead of searching tracked files in the working tree, search + blobs registered in the index file. + +--no-index:: + Search files in the current directory that is not managed by Git. + +--untracked:: + In addition to searching in the tracked files in the working + tree, search also in untracked files. + +--no-exclude-standard:: + Also search in ignored files by not honoring the `.gitignore` + mechanism. Only useful with `--untracked`. + +--exclude-standard:: + Do not pay attention to ignored files specified via the `.gitignore` + mechanism. Only useful when searching files in the current directory + with `--no-index`. + +--recurse-submodules:: + Recursively search in each submodule that has been initialized and + checked out in the repository. When used in combination with the + <tree> option the prefix of all submodule output will be the name of + the parent project's <tree> object. + +-a:: +--text:: + Process binary files as if they were text. + +--textconv:: + Honor textconv filter settings. + +--no-textconv:: + Do not honor textconv filter settings. + This is the default. + +-i:: +--ignore-case:: + Ignore case differences between the patterns and the + files. + +-I:: + Don't match the pattern in binary files. + +--max-depth <depth>:: + For each <pathspec> given on command line, descend at most <depth> + levels of directories. A value of -1 means no limit. + This option is ignored if <pathspec> contains active wildcards. + In other words if "a*" matches a directory named "a*", + "*" is matched literally so --max-depth is still effective. + +-r:: +--recursive:: + Same as `--max-depth=-1`; this is the default. + +--no-recursive:: + Same as `--max-depth=0`. + +-w:: +--word-regexp:: + Match the pattern only at word boundary (either begin at the + beginning of a line, or preceded by a non-word character; end at + the end of a line or followed by a non-word character). + +-v:: +--invert-match:: + Select non-matching lines. + +-h:: +-H:: + By default, the command shows the filename for each + match. `-h` option is used to suppress this output. + `-H` is there for completeness and does not do anything + except it overrides `-h` given earlier on the command + line. + +--full-name:: + When run from a subdirectory, the command usually + outputs paths relative to the current directory. This + option forces paths to be output relative to the project + top directory. + +-E:: +--extended-regexp:: +-G:: +--basic-regexp:: + Use POSIX extended/basic regexp for patterns. Default + is to use basic regexp. + +-P:: +--perl-regexp:: + Use Perl-compatible regular expressions for patterns. ++ +Support for these types of regular expressions is an optional +compile-time dependency. If Git wasn't compiled with support for them +providing this option will cause it to die. + +-F:: +--fixed-strings:: + Use fixed strings for patterns (don't interpret pattern + as a regex). + +-n:: +--line-number:: + Prefix the line number to matching lines. + +--column:: + Prefix the 1-indexed byte-offset of the first match from the start of the + matching line. + +-l:: +--files-with-matches:: +--name-only:: +-L:: +--files-without-match:: + Instead of showing every matched line, show only the + names of files that contain (or do not contain) matches. + For better compatibility with 'git diff', `--name-only` is a + synonym for `--files-with-matches`. + +-O[<pager>]:: +--open-files-in-pager[=<pager>]:: + Open the matching files in the pager (not the output of 'grep'). + If the pager happens to be "less" or "vi", and the user + specified only one pattern, the first file is positioned at + the first match automatically. The `pager` argument is + optional; if specified, it must be stuck to the option + without a space. If `pager` is unspecified, the default pager + will be used (see `core.pager` in linkgit:git-config[1]). + +-z:: +--null:: + Output \0 instead of the character that normally follows a + file name. + +-o:: +--only-matching:: + Print only the matched (non-empty) parts of a matching line, with each such + part on a separate output line. + +-c:: +--count:: + Instead of showing every matched line, show the number of + lines that match. + +--color[=<when>]:: + Show colored matches. + The value must be always (the default), never, or auto. + +--no-color:: + Turn off match highlighting, even when the configuration file + gives the default to color output. + Same as `--color=never`. + +--break:: + Print an empty line between matches from different files. + +--heading:: + Show the filename above the matches in that file instead of + at the start of each shown line. + +-p:: +--show-function:: + Show the preceding line that contains the function name of + the match, unless the matching line is a function name itself. + The name is determined in the same way as 'git diff' works out + patch hunk headers (see 'Defining a custom hunk-header' in + linkgit:gitattributes[5]). + +-<num>:: +-C <num>:: +--context <num>:: + Show <num> leading and trailing lines, and place a line + containing `--` between contiguous groups of matches. + +-A <num>:: +--after-context <num>:: + Show <num> trailing lines, and place a line containing + `--` between contiguous groups of matches. + +-B <num>:: +--before-context <num>:: + Show <num> leading lines, and place a line containing + `--` between contiguous groups of matches. + +-W:: +--function-context:: + Show the surrounding text from the previous line containing a + function name up to the one before the next function name, + effectively showing the whole function in which the match was + found. + +--threads <num>:: + Number of grep worker threads to use. + See `grep.threads` in 'CONFIGURATION' for more information. + +-f <file>:: + Read patterns from <file>, one per line. + +-e:: + The next parameter is the pattern. This option has to be + used for patterns starting with `-` and should be used in + scripts passing user input to grep. Multiple patterns are + combined by 'or'. + +--and:: +--or:: +--not:: +( ... ):: + Specify how multiple patterns are combined using Boolean + expressions. `--or` is the default operator. `--and` has + higher precedence than `--or`. `-e` has to be used for all + patterns. + +--all-match:: + When giving multiple pattern expressions combined with `--or`, + this flag is specified to limit the match to files that + have lines to match all of them. + +-q:: +--quiet:: + Do not output matched lines; instead, exit with status 0 when + there is a match and with non-zero status when there isn't. + +<tree>...:: + Instead of searching tracked files in the working tree, search + blobs in the given trees. + +\--:: + Signals the end of options; the rest of the parameters + are <pathspec> limiters. + +<pathspec>...:: + If given, limit the search to paths matching at least one pattern. + Both leading paths match and glob(7) patterns are supported. ++ +For more details about the <pathspec> syntax, see the 'pathspec' entry +in linkgit:gitglossary[7]. + +EXAMPLES +-------- + +`git grep 'time_t' -- '*.[ch]'`:: + Looks for `time_t` in all tracked .c and .h files in the working + directory and its subdirectories. + +`git grep -e '#define' --and \( -e MAX_PATH -e PATH_MAX \)`:: + Looks for a line that has `#define` and either `MAX_PATH` or + `PATH_MAX`. + +`git grep --all-match -e NODE -e Unexpected`:: + Looks for a line that has `NODE` or `Unexpected` in + files that have lines that match both. + +`git grep solution -- :^Documentation`:: + Looks for `solution`, excluding files in `Documentation`. + +GIT +--- +Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite |
