This fixes a bug where using \A or (?-m)^ in combination with
-U/--multiline would permit matches that aren't anchored to the
beginning of the file. The underlying cause was an optimization that
occurred when mmaps couldn't be used. Namely, ripgrep tries to still
read the input incrementally if it knows the pattern can't match through
a new line. But the detection logic was flawed, since it didn't account
for line anchors. This commit fixes that.
Fixes#1878, Fixes#1879
It turned out that --vimgrep wasn't quite getting the column of each
match correctly. Instead of printing column numbers relative to the
current line, it was printing column numbers as byte offsets relative to
where the match began. To fix this, we simply subtract the offset of the
line number from the beginning of the match. If the beginning of the
match came before the start of the current line, then there's really
nothing sensible we can do other than to use a column number of 1, which
we now document.
Interestingly, existing tests were checking that the previous behavior
was intended. My only defense is that I somehow tricked myself into
thinking it was a byte offset instead of a column number.
Kudos to @bfrg for calling this out in #1866:

Sadly, there were several tests that are coupled to the size of the
buffer used by ripgrep. Making the tests agnostic to the size is
difficult. And it's annoying to fix the tests. But we rarely change the
buffer size, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
This brings in all other semver updates.
This did require updating some tests, since bstr changed its debug
output for NUL bytes to be a bit more idiomatic.
While Linux distributions (at least Arch Linux, RHEL, Debian) do not support
compressing files with compress(1), macOS & AIX do (the utility is part of
POSIX). Additionally, gzip is able to uncompress such compressed files and
provides an `uncompress` binary.
Closes#1547
In order to implement --count-matches, we simply re-execute the regex on
the spans reported by the searcher. The spans always correspond to the
lines that participated in the match. This is the correct thing to do,
except when the regex contains look-ahead (or look-behind).
In particular, the look-around permits the regex's match success to
depends on an arbitrary point before or after the lines actually
reported as participating in the match. Since only the matched lines are
reported to the printer, it is possible for subsequent searching on
those lines to fail.
A true fix for this would somehow make the total span available to the
printer. But that seems tricky since it isn't always available. For
PCRE2's case in multiline mode, it is available because we force it to
be so for correctness.
For now, we simply detect this corner case heuristically. If the match
count is zero, then it necessarily means there is some kind of
look-around that isn't matching. So we set the match count to 1. This is
probably incorrect in some cases, although my brain can't quite come up
with a concrete example. Nevertheless, this is strictly better than the
status quo.
Fixes#1573
The purpose of this flag is to force ripgrep to ignore all --ignore-file
flags (whether they come before or after --no-ignore-files).
This flag can be overridden with --ignore-files.
Fixes#1466
The transient failures appear to be persisting and they are quite
difficult to debug. So include a full directory listing in the output of
every test failure.
The reason why it wasn't working was the integration tests. Namely, the
integration tests attempted to execute the 'rg' binary directly from
inside cross's docker container. But this obviously doesn't work when
'rg' was compiled for a totally different architecture.
Cross normally does this by hooking into the Rust test infrastructure
and causing tests to run with 'qemu'. But our integration tests didn't
do that. This commit fixes our test setup to check for cross's
environment variable that points to the 'qemu' binary. Once we have
that, we just use 'qemu-foo rg' instead of 'rg'. Piece of cake.
This is why I was so intent on clearing the PR queue. This will
effectively invalidate all existing patches, so I wanted to start from a
clean slate.
We do make one little tweak: we put the default type definitions in
their own file and tell rustfmt to keep its grubby mits off of it. We
also sort it lexicographically and hopefully will enforce that from here
on.
Due to how walkdir works if symlinks are not followed, symlinks to
directories are seen as simple files by ripgrep. This caused a panic
in some cases due to receiving a WalkEvent::Exit event without a
corresponding WalkEvent::Dir event.
This is fixed by looking at the metadata of the file in the case of a
symlink to determine if it's a directory. We are careful to only do
this stat check when the depth of the entry is 0, as this bug only
impacts us when 1) we aren't following symlinks generally and 2) the
user provides a symlinked directory that we do follow as a top-level
path to search.
Fixes#1389, Closes#1397
This adds a universal --no-unicode flag that is intended to work for all
supported regex engines. There is no point in retaining
--no-pcre2-unicode, so we make them aliases to the new flags and
deprecate them.
This flag prevents ripgrep from requiring one to search a git repository
in order to respect git-related ignore rules (global, .gitignore and
local excludes). This actually corresponds to behavior ripgrep had long
ago, but #934 changed that. It turns out that users were relying on this
buggy behavior. In most cases, fixing it as simple as converting one's
rules to .ignore or .rgignore files. Unfortunately, there are other use
cases---like Perforce automatically respecting .gitignore files---that
make a strong case for ripgrep to at least support this.
The UX of a flag like this is absolutely atrocious. It's so obscure that
it's really not worth explicitly calling it out anywhere. Moreover, the
error cases that occur when this flag isn't used (but its behavior is
desirable) will not be intuitive, do not seem easily detectable and will
not guide users to this flag. Nevertheless, the motivation for this is
just barely strong enough for me to begrudgingly accept this.
Fixes#1414, Closes#1416
This appears to be another transcription bug from copying this code from
the prefix literal detection from inside the regex crate. Namely, when
it comes to inner literals, we only want to treat counted repetition as
two separate cases: the case when the minimum match is 0 and the case
when the minimum match is more than 0. In the former case, we treat
`e{0,n}` as `e*` and in the latter we treat `e{m,n}` where `m >= 1` as
just `e`.
We could definitely do better here. e.g., This means regexes like
`(foo){10}` will only have `foo` extracted as a literal, where searching
for the full literal would likely be faster.
The actual bug here was that we were not implementing this logic
correctly. Namely, we weren't always "cutting" the literals in the
second case to prevent them from being expanded.
Fixes#1319, Closes#1367
Git looks for this file in GIT_COMMON_DIR, which is usually the same
as GIT_DIR (.git). However, when searching inside a linked worktree,
.git is usually a file that contains the path of the actual git dir,
which in turn contains a file "commondir" which references the directory
where info/exclude may reside, alongside other configuration shared across
all worktrees. This directory is usually the git dir of the main worktree.
Unlike git this does *not* read environment variables GIT_DIR and
GIT_COMMON_DIR, because it is not clear how to interpret them when
searching multiple repositories.
Fixes#1445, Closes#1446
This commit adds a new --no-ignore-exclude flag that permits disabling
the use of .git/info/exclude filtering. Local exclusions are manual
configurations to a repository and are not shared, so it is sometimes
useful to disable to get a consistent view of a repository.
This also adds a new section to the man page that describes automatic
filtering.
Closes#1420
This flag, when used in conjunction with --count or --count-matches,
will print a result for each file searched even if there were zero
matches in that file. This is off by default but can be enabled to make
ripgrep behave more like grep.
This also clarifies some of the defaults for the
grep-printer::SummaryBuilder type.
Closes#1370, Closes#1405
--context-separator='' still adds a new line separator, which could
still potentially be useful. So we add a new `--no-context-separator`
flag that completely disables context separators even when the -A/-B/-C
context flags are used.
Closes#1390
I'm surprised this wasn't caught until now, but if a test directory
already exists, then it was reused. This can result in hard to debug
problems with tests when, e.g., file names are changed and a recursive
search is executed.
Specifically, when searching stdin, if the current directory has a
directory named `-`, then the `--with-filename` flag would automatically
be turned on. This is because `--with-filename` is automatically enabled
when ripgrep is given a single path that is a directory. When ripgrep is
given empty arguments, and if it is searching stdin, then its default
path list is just simple `["-"]`. The `is_dir` check passes, and
`--with-filename` gets enabled.
This commit fixes the problem by checking whether the path is `-` first.
If so, then we assume it isn't a directory. This is fine, since if it is
a directory and one asks to search it explicitly, then ripgrep will
interpret `-` as stdin anyway (which is arguably a bug on its own, but
probably not one worth fixing).
Fixes#1223, Closes#1292
It turns out that when the -F flag was used, if any of the patterns
contained a regex meta character (such as `.`), then we winded up
escaping the pattern first before handing it off to Aho-Corasick, which
treats all patterns literally.
We continue to apply band-aides here and just avoid Aho-Corasick if
there is an escape in any of the literal patterns. This is unfortunate,
but making this work better requires more refactoring, and the right
solution is to get this optimization pushed down into the regex engine.
Fixes#1334
In an effort to strip line terminators, we assumed their existence. But
a pattern file may not end with a line terminator, so we shouldn't
unconditionally strip them.
We fix this by moving to bstr's line handling, which does this for us
automatically.
This flag, when set, will automatically dispatch to PCRE2 if the given
regex cannot be compiled by Rust's regex engine. If both engines fail to
compile the regex, then both errors are surfaced.
Closes#1155
This commit adds support for showing a preview of long lines. While the
default still remains as completely suppressing the entire line, this
new functionality will show the first N graphemes of a matching line,
including the number of matches that are suppressed.
This was unfortunately a fairly invasive change to the printer that
required a bit of refactoring. On the bright side, the single line
and multi-line coloring are now more unified than they were before.
Closes#1078
This commit attempts to surface binary filtering in a slightly more
user friendly way. Namely, before, ripgrep would silently stop
searching a file if it detected a NUL byte, even if it had previously
printed a match. This can lead to the user quite reasonably assuming
that there are no more matches, since a partial search is fairly
unintuitive. (ripgrep has this behavior by default because it really
wants to NOT search binary files at all, just like it doesn't search
gitignored or hidden files.)
With this commit, if a match has already been printed and ripgrep detects
a NUL byte, then it will print a warning message indicating that the search
stopped prematurely.
Moreover, this commit adds a new flag, --binary, which causes ripgrep to
stop filtering binary files, but in a way that still avoids dumping
binary data into terminals. That is, the --binary flag makes ripgrep
behave more like grep's default behavior.
For files explicitly specified in a search, e.g., `rg foo some-file`,
then no binary filtering is applied (just like no gitignore and no
hidden file filtering is applied). Instead, ripgrep behaves as if you
gave the --binary flag for all explicitly given files.
This was a fairly invasive change, and potentially increases the UX
complexity of ripgrep around binary files. (Before, there were two
binary modes, where as now there are three.) However, ripgrep is now a
bit louder with warning messages when binary file detection might
otherwise be hiding potential matches, so hopefully this is a net
improvement.
Finally, the `-uuu` convenience now maps to `--no-ignore --hidden
--binary`, since this is closer to the actualy intent of the
`--unrestricted` flag, i.e., to reduce ripgrep's smart filtering. As a
consequence, `rg -uuu foo` should now search roughly the same number of
bytes as `grep -r foo`, and `rg -uuua foo` should search roughly the
same number of bytes as `grep -ra foo`. (The "roughly" weasel word is
used because grep's and ripgrep's binary file detection might differ
somewhat---perhaps based on buffer sizes---which can impact exactly what
is and isn't searched.)
See the numerous tests in tests/binary.rs for intended behavior.
Fixes#306, Fixes#855
This commit adds a new encoding feature where the -E/--encoding flag
will now accept a value of 'none'. When given this value, all encoding
related machinery is disabled and ripgrep will search the raw bytes of
the file, including the BOM if it's present.
Closes#1207, Closes#1208
This fixes what appears to be a pretty egregious regression where the
`-F/--fixed-strings` flag wasn't be applied to patterns supplied via
the `-f/--file` flag. The same bug existed for the `-x/--line-regexp`
flag as well, which we fix here.
Fixes#1176
This changes how ripgrep emit exit status codes. In particular, any error
that occurs while searching will now cause ripgrep to emit a `2` exit
code, where as it previously would emit either a `0` or a `1` code based
on whether it matched or not. That is, ripgrep would only emit a `2` exit
code for a catastrophic error.
This tweak includes additional logic that GNU grep adheres to, which seems
like good sense. Namely, if -q/--quiet is given, and an error occurs and
a match occurs, then ripgrep will emit a `0` exit code.
Closes#1159
Previously, we relied on clap to handle printing either an error
message, or --help/--version output, in addition to setting the exit
status code. Unfortunately, for --help/--version output, clap was
panicking if the write failed, which can happen in fairly common
scenarios via a broken pipe error. e.g., `rg -h | head`.
We fix this by using clap's "safe" API and doing the printing ourselves.
We also set the exit code to `2` when an invalid command has been given.
Fixes#1125 and partially addresses #1159
This commit improves the CRLF hack to be more robust. In particular, in
addition to rewriting `$` as `(?:\r??$)`, we now strip `\r` from the end
of a match if and only if the regex has an ending line anchor required for
a match. This doesn't quite make the hack 100% correct, but should fix most
use cases in practice. An example of a regex that will still be incorrect
is `foo|bar$`, since the analysis isn't quite sophisticated enough to
determine that a `\r` can be safely stripped from any match. Even if we
fix that, regexes like `foo\r|bar$` still won't be handled correctly. Alas,
more work on this front should really be focused on enabling this in the
regex engine itself.
The specific cause of this bug was that grep-searcher was sneakily
stripping CRLF from matching lines when it really shouldn't have. We remove
that code now, and instead rely on better match semantics provided at a
lower level.
Fixes#1095
This fixes a bug where a BOM prefix was included. While this was somewhat
intentional in order to have a faithful "UTF8 passthru" option, in
practice, this causes problems such as breaking patterns like `^` in a
really non-obvious way.
The actual fix was to add a new API to encoding_rs_io, which this commit
brings in.
Fixes#1163
Previously, `man gitignore` specified that `**` was invalid unless it
was used in one of a few specific circumstances, i.e., `**`, `a/**`,
`**/b` or `a/**/b`. That is, `**` always had to be surrounded by either
a path separator or the beginning/end of the pattern.
It turns out that git itself has treated `**` outside the above contexts
as valid for quite a while, so there was an inconsistency between the
spec `man gitignore` and the implementation, and it wasn't clear which
was actually correct.
@okdana filed a bug against git[1] and got this fixed. The spec was wrong,
which has now been fixed [2] and updated[2].
This commit brings ripgrep in line with git and treats `**` outside of
the above contexts as two consecutive `*` patterns. We deprecate the
`InvalidRecursive` error since it is no longer used.

This fixes a bug where repeated use of ** didn't behave as it should. In
particular, each use of `**` added a new requirement directory depth
requirement. For example, something like `**/**/b` would match
`foo/bar/b`, but it wouldn't match `foo/b` even though it should. In
particular, `**` semantics demand "infinite" depth, so repeated uses of
`**` should just coalesce as if only one was given.
We do this coalescing in the parser. It's a little tricky because we
treat `**/a`, `a/**` and `a/**/b` as distinct tokens with their own
regex conversions. We also test the crap out of it.
Fixes#1174
When deciding whether to add the `**/` prefix or not, we should choose
not to add it if the pattern is simply a bare `**`. Previously, we were
only not adding it if it was `**/`, which is correct, but we also need
to do it for `**` since `**` can already match anywhere.
There's likely a more principled solution to this, but this works for
now.
Fixes#1173
This commit fixes a bug where both of the following commands always
reported an error:
rg --files-with-matches foo file
rg --files-without-match foo file
In particular, the printer was erroneously respecting the `path` option
even the the summary kind was `PathWithMatch` or `PathWithoutMatch`. The
documented behavior is that those summary kinds always require a path,
and thus, the `path` option has no effect. We fix this by correcting the
case analysis.
This also fixes a bug where the exit code for `--files-without-match`
was not set correctly. We update the printer's `has_match` method to
report the correct value.
Fixes#1106, Closes#1130
The --ignore-file-case-insensitive flag causes all
.gitignore/.rgignore/.ignore files to have their globs matched without
regard for case. Because this introduces a potentially significant
performance regression, this is always disabled by default. Users that
need case insensitive matching can enable it on a case by case basis.
Closes#1164, Closes#1170
It seems the inner literal detector fails spectacularly in cases of
concatenations that involve groups. The issue here is that if the prefix
of a group inside a concatenation can match the empty string, then any
literals generated to that point in the concatenation need to be cut
such that they are never extended. The detector isn't really built to
handle this case, so we just act conservative cut literals whenever we
see a sub-group. This may make some regexes slower, but the inner
literal detector already misses plenty of cases.
Literal detection (including in the regex engine) is a key component
that needs to be completely rethought at some point.
Fixes#1064
