0d042fecf2 git-grep: show pathnames relative to the current directory
By default, the command shows pathnames relative to the current
directory.  Use --full-name (the same flag to do so in ls-files)
if you want to see the full pathname relative to the project root.

This makes it very pleasant to run in Emacs compilation (or
"grep-find") buffer.

b0d08a504b Format tweaks for asciidoc.
Some documentation "options" were followed by independent preformatted
paragraphs. Now they are associated plain text paragraphs. The
difference is clear in the generated html.

5b2bcc7b2d git-grep: clarification on parameters.
We forgot to make sure that there is no more than one pattern
parameter.  Also when looking for files in a directory called
'--others', it passed that path limiter without preceding the
end-of-options marker '--' to underlying git-ls-files, which
misunderstood it as one of its options instead.

	$ git grep --others -e Meta/Make Meta
	$ git grep -o -e Meta/Make Meta
	$ git grep -o Meta/Make Meta

look for a string "Meta/Make" from untracked files in Meta/
directory.

	$ git grep Meta/Make --others

looks for the same string from tracked files in ./--others
directory.

On the other hand,

	$ git grep -e Meta/Make --others

does not have a freestanding pattern, so everybody is parameter
and there is no path specifier.  It looks for the string in all
the untracked files without any path limiter.

[jc: updated with usability enhancements and documentation
cleanups from Sean.]
