git-grep(1)'s output is not consistent with git-rev-parse(1) revision syntax.

This means you cannot take "rev:path/to/file.c: foo();" output from git-grep(1) and expect "git show rev:path/to/file.c" to work. See the individual patches for examples of command-lines that produce invalid output.

This series is an incomplete attempt at solving the issue. I'm not familiar enough with the git codebase to propose a better solution. Perhaps someone is interested in a proper fix?

  grep: only add delimiter if there isn't one already
  grep: use '/' delimiter for paths
