git-grep: Learn PCRE
This patch teaches git-grep the --perl-regexp/-P options (naming borrowed from GNU grep) in order to allow specifying PCRE regexes on the command line. PCRE has a number of features which make them more handy to use than POSIX regexes, like consistent escaping rules, extended character classes, ungreedy matching etc. git isn't build with PCRE support automatically. USE_LIBPCRE environment variable must be enabled (like `make USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease`). Signed-off-by: Michał Kiedrowicz <michal.kiedrowicz@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
