Subject: Teach git-grep --name-only as synonym for -l
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.5-rc0~171

Teach git-grep --name-only as synonym for -l

I expected git grep --name-only to give me only the file names,
much as git diff --name-only only generates filenames.  Alas the
option is -l, which matches common external greps but doesn't match
other parts of the git UI.
