Fixes opening files from results with filenames such as "1-2-3".
Unfortunately the output of
git grep --null
doesn't distinguish between matching and context lines, so that information is lost.An alternative would be to use
--color
and specifycolor.grep.*
explicitly on the command-line, though that is potentially more fragile and doesn't provide perfect escaping (a file name may contain an ANSI color sequence on POSIX).I would like to add a test for this, however there doesn't appear to be any tests which actually invoke
git grep
, so the only option would be to test parsing of simulatedgit
output.
