git grep --untracked

Turned out I use `git grep` a lot with my VIM (using

EasyGrep

plugin). At some point this plugin just stopped to show me all the available results.

Due to lack of explicit `git grep` usage it was pretty mysterious.

The reason is that `git grep` doesn't search in untracked files. If you want to search in untracked files too just add `--untracked` option to the command like this:

git grep --untracked SomethingILookingFor *
