Maybe not.  My path completes the assumption that the L:R value
returned by grep is an object ref; but Junio still thought it wasn't.
I think this is another case where his view was correct.

There's more bad news on this front.

    $ cd Documentation
    $ git grep -l foo HEAD .. | head -1
    HEAD:../.gitignore

That's not a valid ref, either (though maybe it could be).
