[SOLVED] grep: warning: GREP_OPTIONS is deprecated

So the today update brought the following warning into every new opened shell:

grep: warning: GREP_OPTIONS is deprecated; please use an alias or script

Any ideas how to remove it.

I'va added

unset GREP_OPTIONS

into my zshrc file however this does not solve it (although the earlier --color=always content of my shell variable has changed to empty)

Thanks,

Re: [SOLVED] grep: warning: GREP_OPTIONS is deprecated

You probably have

export GREP_OPTIONS='--color=auto'

in ~/.zshrc or some other file.

Please change the thread title to something more descriptive.

Nope, it's not there in my zshrc files.

I've used zprezto, it was inside my

vim modules/environment/init.zsh

Re: [SOLVED] grep: warning: GREP_OPTIONS is deprecated

For the record: fish does the same in /usr/share/fish/functions/grep.fish
As a workaround, define your own grep.fish function.

https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/1832

UPDATE: fish-shell-git already contains the fix. BTW my workaround was wrong, but anyway...

My quick fix.

Just add

alias grep="/usr/bin/grep $GREP_OPTIONS"
unset GREP_OPTIONS

to the end of you shell rc file
