Teach 'git-grep(1)' a new option, '--column', to show the column
number of the first match on a non-context line. This makes it possible
to teach 'contrib/git-jump/git-jump' how to seek to the first matching
position of a grep match in your editor, and allows similar additional
scripting capabilities.
For example:
$ git grep -n --column foo | head -n3
.clang-format:51:14:# myFunction(foo, bar, baz);
.clang-format:64:7:# int foo();
.clang-format:75:8:# void foo()

Sorry to be fussy, but while this is clearer I think to could be
improved to make it clear that it is the offset from the start of the
matching line. Also the mention of 'extended expressions' made me think
of 'grep -E' but I think (correct me if I'm wrong) you mean the boolean
options '--and', '--not' and '--or'. The man page only uses the word
extended when talking about extended regexes. I think something like
Print the 1-indexed byte-offset of the first match from the start of the

'--and', '--not' and '--or'.
would be clearer
