;;; Commentary:

;; This file contains a VC backend for the git version control
;; system.
;;

;;; Installation:

;; To install: put this file on the load-path and add Git to the list
;; of supported backends in `vc-handled-backends'; the following line,
;; placed in your ~/.emacs, will accomplish this:
;;
;;     (add-to-list 'vc-handled-backends 'Git)

;;; Todo:
;;  - check if more functions could use vc-git-command instead
;;     of start-process.
;;  - changelog generation

;; Implement the rest of the vc interface. See the comment at the
;; beginning of vc.el. The current status is:
;; ("??" means: "figure out what to do about it")

The search is limited to file names matching shell pattern FILES.
FILES may use abbreviations defined in `grep-files-aliases', e.g.
entering `ch' is equivalent to `*.[ch]'.

With \\[universal-argument] prefix, you can edit the constructed shell command line
before it is executed.
With two \\[universal-argument] prefixes, directly edit and run `grep-command'.

Collect output in a buffer.  While git grep runs asynchronously, you
can use \\[next-error] (M-x next-error), or \\<grep-mode-map>\\[compile-goto-error] \
in the grep output buffer,
to go to the lines where grep found matches.
