This commit represents the initial work to get hyperlinks working and
was submitted as part of PR #2483. Subsequent commits largely retain the
functionality and structure of the hyperlink support added here, but
rejigger some things around.
This fixes CI to handle the new documentation files. We also continue to
do more cleanup. In particular, we devise a nicer way of detecting the
most recent Cargo OUT_DIR by writing a dummy file, and looking for the
most recently modified version of that file.
[Snapcraft](https://snapcraft.io/) makes Linux packaging very simple in a cross-distro
way. This adds the snapcraft.yaml file to setup a snap of ripgrep
This commit completely guts all of the color handling code and replaces
most of it with two new crates: wincolor and termcolor. wincolor
provides a simple API to coloring using the Windows console and
termcolor provides a platform independent coloring API tuned for
multithreaded command line programs. This required a lot more
flexibility than what the `term` crate provided, so it was dropped.
We instead switch to writing ANSI escape sequences directly and ignore
the TERMINFO database.
In addition to fixing several bugs, this commit also permits end users
to customize colors to a certain extent. For example, this command will
set the match color to magenta and the line number background to yellow:
rg --colors 'match:fg:magenta' --colors 'line:bg:yellow' foo
For tty handling, we've adopted a hack from `git` to do tty detection in
MSYS/mintty terminals. As a result, ripgrep should get both color
detection and piping correct on Windows regardless of which terminal you
use.
Finally, switch to line buffering. Performance doesn't seem to be
impacted and it's an otherwise more user friendly option.
