Search issue, showing too many results.

[anepap]

Hi there,

I am using some lets say sentinels at the start of my git commits, that I like to use for filtering and they look like "[#]", or like "[CL]" and so on (without the ""). When I the try to searsch for those in the history, I get results where the given search term isn't really present:

On that search, I search for "[CL]" and the results clearly don't include that term. How exactly does the search work?

Maybe as a new feature or improvement you should offer a search dialog, where someone can fine tune the search more visibly, if needed...

Thanks for your time!

Fork uses git log --grep=<query>. Try to escape \[: \[CL\].

Or use the context search in the commit list (Cmd+F).
