Description: About
        -----
        *git-search-replace* is a small utility on top of plain `git` for performing project-wide search-and-replace only on git-controlled files. It applies its searches to filenames as well as their content. The underlying syntax for the search regex is Python's.
        
        It is designed to be a bit more instructive to the developer, compared to hackish `bash` scripts around `sed`.
        
        Key features are:
        
        * By default, only act as grep to show what is going to change.
        * Dry run mode '--diff' shows a unidiff of the changes that the search-and-replace would do, so that the developer can review for correctness. No working directory files are modified.
        * Fix mode '--fix' performs the actual changes and associated 'git mv'.
        
        Syntax
        ------
            Usage: gsr [options] (FROM-SEPARATOR-TO...)
        
            Options:
              -h, --help            show this help message and exit
              -s STRING, --separator=STRING
                                The separator string which separates FROM regex and TO expression
              -f, --fix             Perform changes in-place
              -d, --diff            Use 'diff' util to show differences
        
        The expressions are tuples in the form of FROM-SEPARATOR-TO, with SEPARATOR defaults to '///'.
        
        Examples
        --------
        
        Shell escaping needs to be taken into consideration. The examples below should work with the major UNIX shells.
        
            gsr old_name///new_name --diff
        
        This shows a diff that represents the replacement of 'old_name' with 'new_name'.
        
            gsr \\bold_name\\b///new_name --fix
        
        This uses Python regex expression \b for matching at word boundaries for whole identifiers. This invocation will perform changes in-place because of '--fix'.
        
            gsr 'things with space///with other stuff' --diff
        
        Note that shells properly de-escape the commas from the expression above.
