Hi,
I ran into this the other day when I was looking at jgit's log history.
I retested today with the latest master branch, and it does the same thing.
So... what am I doing wrong?
git clone git://repo.or.cz/egit/spearce.git bsd
git log |grep "^Author:" | sort | uniq
# note the user: Thad Hughes <thadh@thad.corp.google.com>
# nothing appears for these commands
git log --grep="thadh@thad.corp.google.com"
git log --grep="google.com"
git log --grep="thadh"
# this works
git log --author="thadh@thad.corp.google.com"
# this works
git log | grep thadh@thad.corp.google.com

According to the man page of git-log, --grep only greps the log message,
not the author. Does that help?

--grep only works on the log message, not on the author or committer
fields. As Thad's commit does not have a SoB line, --grep won't find it.
