Details

In a recent commit[1], grep was replaced with fgrep. However, instead of calling fgrep, grep -F should be used. The grep man page states:

> In addition, two variant programs egrep and fgrep are available. egrep is the same as grep -E. fgrep
> is the same as grep -F. Direct invocation as either egrep or fgrep is deprecated, but is provided to
> allow historical applications that rely on them to run unmodified.
