helm-projectile-grep fails to respect projectile-use-git-grep variable

[tko]

In a git project setting projectile-use-git-grep significantly increases the performance of projectile-grep but that does not seem to have any effect on helm-projectile-grep. This is rather unfortunate as while the latter has reasonable SPC p s g keyboard shortcut assigned the former does not making it relatively inconvenient to use.

I wonder if this is something to handle in spacemacs or upstream in helm-projectile (I think it comes from the projectile repo).

Comparing https://github.com/bbatsov/projectile/blob/master/projectile.el#L1700 and https://github.com/bbatsov/projectile/blob/master/helm-projectile.el#L630 it looks like an upstream issue; helm-projectile only supports ack and "grep -r" currently.

Can you report this upstream and link to the issue here so we can track its status ?

It looks like the issue has been fixed upstream. If it is not the case, feel free to ping me here, I'll reopen it ☺️
