Subject: [PATCH 2/2] grep: grep cache entries if they are "assume unchanged"

From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2008 15:21:03 +0700

"Assume unchanged" bit means "please pretend that I have never touched
this file", so  if user removes the file, we should not care.

This patch teaches "git grep" to use cache version in such
situations. External grep case has not been fixed yet. But given that
on the platform that CE_VALID bit may be used like Windows, external
grep is not available anyway, I would wait for people to raise their
hands before touching it.

 I will do git-grep fixes for sparse checkout later because it will require
 nd/narrow. This series does not, so it can be applied separatedly.
