Add support for -F | --fixed-strings option to "git log --grep" and friends: "git log --author", "git log --committer=<pattern>". Code is based on implementation of this option in "git grep". Signed-off-by: Jakub Narebski <redacted> --- This would simplify ignore-case searching for a fixed string from within gitweb, as gitweb wouldn't then have to deal with differences in quoting and unquoting (if you quote character which doesn't need quoting, would git unquote it?) between searched phrase, basic/extended regular expression as understood by git/by grep, and regular expressions in Perl (when showing matched info). [I am not sure if the above paragtaph should be added to commit message, so it is in patch comments. Feel free to add it.] P.S. I see that neither git-log, nor git-grep are converted to parseopt interface. What are plans for it, if any?
