Add small howtos for installing shell completion files to the README and
the man page.
They are still incomplete. We're missing Zsh and PowerShell.
Fixes#262
This commit fixes two issues.
First, the iterator was executing the callback for every child of a
directory in a single thread. Therefore, if the walker was run over a
single directory, then no parallelism is used. We tweak the iterator
slightly so that we don't fall into this trap.
The second issue is a bit more subtle. In particular, we don't use the
blocking semantics of MsQueue because we *don't know when iteration
finishes*. This means that if there are a bunch of idle workers because
there is no work available to them, then they will spin and burn the
CPU. One case where this crops up is if you pipe the output of ripgrep
into `less` *and* the total number of files to search is fewer than the
number of threads ripgrep uses. We "fix" this with a very stupid
heuristic: when the queue yields no work, we sleep the thread for 1ms.
This still pegs the CPU, but not nearly as much as before.
If one really want to avoid this behavior when using ripgrep, then `-j1`
can be used to disable parallelism.
Fixes#258
Previously, ripgrep would only emit the 'bold' ANSI escape sequence if
no foreground or background color was set. Instead, it would convert colors
to their "intense" versions if bold was set. The intent was to do the same
thing on Windows and Unix. However, this had a few negative side effects:
1. Omitting the 'bold' ANSI escape when 'bold' was set is surprising.
2. Intense colors can look quite bad and be hard to read.
To fix this, we introduce a new setting called 'intense' in the --colors
flag, and thread that down through to the public API of the `termcolor`
crate. The 'intense' setting has environment specific behavior:
1. In ANSI mode, it will convert the selected color to its "intense"
variant.
2. In the Windows console, it will make the text "intense."
There is no longer any "smart" handling of the 'bold' style. The 'bold'
ANSI escape is always emitted when it is selected. In the Windows
console, the 'bold' setting now has no effect. Note that this is a
breaking change.
Fixes#266, #293
This means that ripgrep will no longer try to reset your colors in your
terminal if you kill it while searching. This could result in messing up
the colors in your terminal, and the fix is to simply run some other
command that resets them for you. For example:
$ echo -ne "\033[0m"
The reason why the ^C handling was removed is because it is irrevocably
broken on Windows and is impossible to do correctly and efficiently in
ANSI terminals.
Fixes#281
The point of the ~ dependency was to avoid implicitly increasing the
minimum Rust version required to compile ripgrep. However, clap's policy
is to support at least two prior releases of Rust (which roughly
corresponds to the convention that others use too), and that is probably
good enough.
The problem with using a ~ dependency is that it can make packaging
ripgrep in Linux distros difficult, because it means the packager may be
forced to package multiple compatible versions of the same library.
Fixes#271
2016-12-24-archlinux-cheetah uses the same setup/compile config as
2016-09-22-archlinux-cheetah. The improvements are nice.
The other 2016-12-24-archlinux-cheetah-* benchmarks try to suss out
a difference between MUSL, glibc, jemalloc and the system allocator.
When give an explicit file path on the command line like `foo` where `foo`
is a symlink, ripgrep should follow it even if `-L` isn't set. This is
consistent with the behavior of `foo/`.
Fixes#256
When ripgrep detects a literal, it emits them as raw hex escaped byte
sequences to Regex::new. This permits literal optimizations for arbitrary
byte sequences (i.e., possibly invalid UTF-8). The problem is that
Regex::new interprets hex escaped byte sequences as *Unicode codepoints*
by default, but we want them to actually stand for their raw byte values.
Therefore, disable Unicode mode.
This is OK, since the regex is composed entirely of literals and literal
extraction does Unicode case folding.
Fixes#251
This changes the uppercase literal detection for the "smart case"
functionality. In particular, a character class is considered to have an
uppercase literal if at least one of its ranges starts or stops with an
uppercase literal.
Fixes#229
