Description
When trying to use "git grep" with the "-P" option, I get
cannot use Perl-compatible regexes when not compiled with USE_LIBPCRE
I've attached a patch that adds PCRE support through the pcre Port.

I wonder whether we should make this a variant, or add it by default.

Good point! I've reattached patch-Portfile.diff. libpcre support is now a variant. Please rebuild and see if "git grep -P" works (if libpcre support isn't there, then git will just complain and do nothing).
Replying to cal@…:
I wonder whether we should make this a variant, or add it by default.

I've reattached the Portfile to reflect underlying changes to the git-core Port.
