'git grep $whatever' provides a nice shorthand for the above operation, particularly with an in-place or in-tree VPATH build. But yes, I can agree with the value of your out-of-tree VPATH builds for a clean separation of source from built objects. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
