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
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
The --pre-glob flag is like the --glob flag, except it applies to filtering
files through the preprocessor instead of for search. This makes it
possible to apply the preprocessor to only a small subset of files, which
can greatly reduce the process overhead of using a preprocessor when
searching large directories.
This basically rewrites every integration test. We reduce the amount of
magic involved here in terms of which arguments are being passed to
ripgrep processes. To make up for the boiler plate saved by the magic,
we make the Dir (formerly WorkDir) type a bit nicer to use, along with a
new TestCommand that wraps a std::process::Command. In exchange, we get
tests that are easier to read and write.
We also run every test with the `--pcre2` flag to make sure that works,
when PCRE2 is available.
