From 17bf35a3c7b46df7131681bcc5bee5f12e1caec4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2012 14:21:44 -0700 Subject: grep: teach --debug option to dump the parse tree Our "grep" allows complex boolean expressions to be formed to match each individual line with operators like --and, '(', ')' and --not. Introduce the "--debug" option to show the parse tree to help people who want to debug and enhance it. Also "log" learns "--grep-debug" option to do the same. The command line parser to the log family is a lot more limited than the general "git grep" parser, but it has special handling for header matching (e.g. "--author"), and a parse tree is valuable when working on it. Note that "--all-match" is *not* any individual node in the parse tree. It is an instruction to the evaluator to check all the nodes in the top-level backbone have matched and reject a document as non-matching otherwise.
