Bug Description

bzr-grep currently searches only versioned (committed) content. so if a user has a uncommitted modified file, the changes are not grepped. bzr-grep without any revision parameters should search the working copy by default. for versioned content grep, revision can be specified.

The current behavior is similar to hg. 'git grep' searches working copy.

I think searching the wt too by default would be ok, but it should
probably be clearly documented and I think some people will want an
option to only look in history. (Which is probably as simple as '-r
-1').
