[PATCH v2 1/2] builtin/grep.c: add --sparse option

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a --sparse option to `git-grep`.

When the '--cached' option is used with the 'git grep' command, the
search is limited to the blobs found in the index, not in the worktree.
If the user has enabled sparse-checkout, this might present more results
than they would like, since the files outside of the sparse-checkout are
unlikely to be important to them.

Change the default behavior of 'git grep' to focus on the files within
the sparse-checkout definition. To enable the previous behavior, add a
'--sparse' option to 'git grep' that triggers the old behavior that
inspects paths outside of the sparse-checkout definition when paired
with the '--cached' option.
