Subject: [PATCH 3/4] grep docs: --cached and <tree>... are incompatible
Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2010 22:40:12 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1267155613-22134-4-git-send-email-lodatom@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1267155613-22134-1-git-send-email-lodatom@gmail.com>
In the synopsis for git-grep(1), show that --cached and <tree>... cannot
be used together.

One downside to this change is that having --cached makes it prominent, which
is good since it's a very common option. However, I think accuracy is more
important here.
