Details:
The --include option seems completely broken to me. I am using v2.6.3 on
Arch Linux.
Example:
# Normal recursive grep works ok...
[a...@perry] ~/test
$ grep -Rl test *
subdir/test.cpp
test.cpp
# test.cpp in the current directory isn't returned
[a...@perry] ~/test
$ grep -Rl --include=\*.cpp test *
subdir/test.cpp
# I only asked for .h files, why is a .cpp file being returned?
[a...@perry] ~/test
$ grep -Rl --include=\*.h test *
test.cpp
# Non-recursive, nothing gets returned.
[a...@perry] ~/test
$ grep -l --include=\*.cpp test *
# Non-recursive, wrong file type returned.
[a...@perry] ~/test
$ grep -l --include=\*.h test *
test.cpp
I've tried using various combinations of backslashes, single and double
quotes on the --include parameter, but to no avail.
