[PATCH] grep -I: do not bother to read known-binary files

From
Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
Date
May 14, 2014, 15:44 UTC
Message-ID
<20140514154419.GA4517@camelia.ucw.cz>
From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

Incidentally, this makes grep -I respect the "binary" attribute (actually, the "-text" attribute, but "binary" implies that).

Since the attributes are not thread-safe, we now need to switch off threading if -I was passed.
