It fails in master.  Adding '--', as was suggested by Stephen Berman,
made it work.

However, git grep only shows me lines _in the old ChangeLog.* files_,
which I had already searched in Emacs directly.  They describe changes
through 2015-04-06.

I was looking for a way to search changes installed since then.

It appears that git log does the job.
