I normally do something like:

        git log -r --raw -p -SSTRING
        git log -r --raw -p -GREGEXP

You can also add --diff-filter=D to filter only on deletes.


Btw, please don't set these headers on kernel.org lists:

        Mail-Copies-To: never
        Mail-Followup-To: git@vger.kernel.org

Like any mail server, vger fails from time-to-time and
reply-to-all prevents it from being a single point of failure.
Thanks.
