# gitregrep(1)

GNU Interactive Tools - recursive grep

Part of [gitrgrep(1)](/gitrgrep/1.md).

## NAME

gitrgrep - GNU Interactive Tools - recursive grep

## SYNTAX

*gitrgrep \[grep-like options\]*

## DESCRIPTION

*gitrgrep* is a very small script that calls grep recursively. It accepts grep-like options/parameters, the only difference being that file specifications should be quoted:

	gitrgrep main '\*.c'

or

	gitrgrep errno '\*.c \*.h'

## BUGS

/bin/sh should support functions in order to run *gitrgrep*. Use bash to be sure.

Please send bug reports to *gnuit-dev@gnu.org*
