This is the syntax I use in Emacs, so I would love it if git-grep would do the same. But it doesn't, for me. Are you sure that it does for you?

Huh. How annoying that it doesn't just work everywhere. Annoying in two ways, actually: one, I want it to work; two, it bugs me not to understand what's going on.
