Yeah, I agree that it seems very unlikely that anybody would actually be affected here, so I'm comfortable with the change. > >> --- > >> Documentation/config/grep.txt | 3 +- > >> Documentation/git-grep.txt | 3 +- > > > > Not the fault of your patch, but these two are annoyingly (and subtly) > > different from one another.
