If you've been following recent gitk development (or this thread)
closely, you'll know that "git log -S" finds commits adding/removing a
string, while "git log -G" finds commits changing lines matching a
regex.

Examples for inclusion in the documentation welcome, certainly
(especially if they come in patch form).

A quick web search finds some references:
