OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -j JOBS, --jobs=JOBS
              number of jobs to run in parallel (default: based on number of CPU cores)

   Logging options:
       --verbose
              show all output

       -q, --quiet
              only show errors

   Multi-manifest options:

       --no-this-manifest-only, --all-manifests
              operate on this manifest and its submanifests

   Sources:
       --cached
              Search the index, instead of the work tree

       -r TREEish, --revision=TREEish
              Search TREEish, instead of the work tree

   Pattern:
       -e PATTERN
              Pattern to search for

       -i, --ignore-case
              Ignore case differences

       -a, --text

       -v, --invert-match
              Select non-matching lines

       -G, --basic-regexp
              Use POSIX basic regexp for patterns (default)

       -E, --extended-regexp
              Use POSIX extended regexp for patterns

       -F, --fixed-strings
              Use fixed strings (not regexp) for pattern

   Pattern Grouping:
       --all-match
              Limit match to lines that have all patterns

       --and, --or, --not
              Boolean operators to combine patterns

       -(, -) Boolean operator grouping

   Output:
       -n     Prefix the line number to matching lines

       -C CONTEXT
              Show CONTEXT lines around match

       -B CONTEXT
              Show CONTEXT lines before match

       -A CONTEXT
              Show CONTEXT lines after match

       -l, --name-only, --files-with-matches
              Show only file names containing matching lines

       -L, --files-without-match
              Show only file names not containing matching lines

       Run `repo help grep` to view the detailed manual.

DETAILS

       Search for the specified patterns in all project files.

       Boolean Options

       The following options can appear as often as necessary to express the pattern to locate:

       -e PATTERN

       --and, --or, --not, -(, -)

       Further,  the  -r/--revision  option  may  be  specified  multiple  times in order to scan
       multiple trees. If the same file matches in more than one tree, only the first  result  is
       reported, prefixed by the revision name it was found under.

       Examples

       Look for a line that has '#define' and either 'MAX_PATH or 'PATH_MAX':

              repo grep -e '#define' --and -\( -e MAX_PATH -e PATH_MAX \)

       Look  for a line that has 'NODE' or 'Unexpected' in files that contain a line that matches
       both expressions:

              repo grep --all-match -e NODE -e Unexpected
