Why doesn't yeoman's jshint grunt task behave the same as jshint command?

I'm using yeoman with angular-generator. It includes a task to check for JavaScript style errors using jshint: grunt jshint

When I run it I see some indentations errors:

app/scripts/app.js
  line 11   col 2   Expected ']' to have an indentation at 3 instead at 2.
  line 15   col 1   Expected '}' to have an indentation at 3 instead at 1.

I checked that these come from this setting in the .jshintrc config:

{
  "indent": 2
}

However when I check the file manually using the jshint command (installed using npm install -g jshint) I don't see those errors:

$ jshint app/scripts/app.js
  <nothing here>

Even though jshint's docs say that it will pick up the config from .jshintrc. Moreover, I have been unable to make the command line jshint command to report any errors at all about indentation (other errors are reported fine).
