My mistake. Calling projectile-grep with current-prefix-arg '(4) indeed prompts
for the git-grep command _and_ a regexp.

I am sorry if I wasn't clear enough. What I'm trying to say is, when calling
vc-git-grep directly or indirectly with current-prefix-arg '(4), I am always
prompted for the full git-grep command. I would like to skip this step
completely,
and always use a custom set of arguments (like, for example, "-C 3"). Then, I
would be prompted for a regexp and (maybe) files, which would be added to this
custom git-grep command's arguments (this is how the rgrep command works, I
think).
