NAME
     git-sed - replace patterns in git-controlled files

SYNOPSIS
     git-sed [ -c ] [ -f flags ] search replacement [ flags ] [ -- pathspec ]

DESCRIPTION
     Run  git  grep  and then send results to sed for replacement with the given
     flags, if they are provided via -f or as the third argument.

     Also runs git commit if -c is provided.

OPTIONS
     -c

     commit the resulting changes with a standard commit message  detailing  the
     exact command ran. It will fail if there are unstaged changes.

     <flags> -f <flags>

     will use the given regex flags in the sed command (for example "g" replaces
     multiple times on the same line).

     <search>

     the pattern passed to grep and to the first part of the sed expression.

     <replacement>

     the replacement passed to sed, the second part of the sed expression.

     -- <pathspec>

     limit     the     paths	 which	   will     be	  applied    on.    Read
     https://git-scm.com/docs/gitglossary.html#Documentation/gitglos-
     sary.txt-aiddefpathspecapathspec for the supported patterns of pathspec.

EXAMPLES
     $ git sed 'my_function' 'do_stuff'
     # ... only does the changes, without committing
     $ git commit -m"use proper function name"
     $ git sed -c 'do_stuff' 'stuff'
     # .. does the changes and a commit
     $ git sed -f g do_stuff stuff
     # .. g is actually pretty important, otherwise you will miss some
     # stuff!
     $ git sed 'my_method' 'do_stuff' -- lake/
     # ... only replace 'my_method' occurs under lake/.
