grep: fix empty word-regexp matches
The command "git grep -w ''" dies as soon as it encounters an empty line, reporting (wrongly) that "regexp returned nonsense". The first hunk of this patch relaxes the sanity check that is responsible for that, allowing matches to start at the end. The second hunk complements it by making sure that empty matches are rejected if -w was specified, as they are not really words. GNU grep does the same: $ echo foo | grep -c '' 1 $ echo foo | grep -c -w '' 0 Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
