This flag is similar to what's found in grep: it will suppress all error
messages, such as those shown when a particular file couldn't be read.
Closes#149
This PR introduces a new sub-crate, `ignore`, which primarily provides a
fast recursive directory iterator that respects ignore files like
gitignore and other configurable filtering rules based on globs or even
file types.
This results in a substantial source of complexity moved out of ripgrep's
core and into a reusable component that others can now (hopefully)
benefit from.
While much of the ignore code carried over from ripgrep's core, a
substantial portion of it was rewritten with the following goals in
mind:
1. Reuse matchers built from gitignore files across directory iteration.
2. Design the matcher data structure to be amenable for parallelizing
directory iteration. (Indeed, writing the parallel iterator is the
next step.)
Fixes#9, #44, #45
This commit completes the initial move of glob matching to an external
crate, including fixing up cross platform support, polishing the
external crate for others to use and fixing a number of bugs in the
process.
Fixes#87, #127, #131
This commit goes a long way toward refactoring glob sets so that the
code is easier to maintain going forward. In particular, it makes the
literal optimizations that glob sets used a lot more structured and much
easier to extend. Tests have also been modified to include glob sets.
There's still a bit of polish work left to do before a release.
This also fixes the immediate issue where large gitignore files were
causing ripgrep to slow way down. While we don't technically fix it for
good, we're a lot better about reducing the number of regexes we
compile. In particular, if a gitignore file contains thousands of
patterns that can't be matched more simply using literals, then ripgrep
will slow down again. We could fix this for good by avoiding RegexSet if
the number of regexes grows too large.
Fixes#134.
