grep -O: allow optional argument specifying the pager (or editor)
Suppose you want to edit all files that contain a specific search term.
Of course, you can do something totally trivial such as
git grep -z -e <term> | xargs -0r vi +/<term>
but maybe you are happy that the same will be achieved by
git grep -Ovi <term>
now.
