I'm with Trevor on this one. While I see the appeal of the generality of a macro solution, this is really just about 
convenience for me on a per-project basis.

As in, while working on a specific project, I sometimes just want to exclude, for the time being, a bunch of stuff from 
'git grep'.

Mind you, I use 'git grep' a hang of a lot during development, since it is so powerful, so maybe that's just me.

Thanks, Noel Grandin
