Re: [PATCH] git-grep: Add ability to limit directory recursion

Aidan Van Dyk [off-list ref] writes:

This add a -R <limit> option to git-grep which will limit the depth of the
directories recursed when git is doing a grep.

This allows you to do something like:
        git grep -R 1 <pattern>
and see only the results of the grep on files in the current directory.

It defaults to a limit of "0" which disables the limiting.

Nice idea, although I'm not sure if we shouldn't borrow "-maxdepth"
option from GNU find and friends...
