BTW, emacs users might like this short emacs snippet, which hooks up
git grep to Emacs's grep support:
https://github.com/martine/config/blob/master/emacs.d/git-grep.el

(Using git grep from within emacs means you can use the normal
commands for jumping through grep output.  It's just like M-x rgrep
but faster due to using git grep underneath.)
