In commit c6e3ea6 you changed the behavior of -r to only recurse symlinks given on the command line. That commit included updates to the --help output and the texinfo, but it neglected to update doc/grep.in.1 so the manpage is still incorrect.
Also, when I try to view the commit at <http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grep.git/commit/?id=c6e3ea61d9f08aa0128a0eb13d31a2fbad376f99> I get an error "No repositories found" from cgit. But other commits display fine.
