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
This commit fixes a bug where AsciiDoc would drop any line containing a
'{foo}' because it interpreted it as an undefined attribute reference:
> Simple attribute references take the form {<name>}. If the attribute name
> is defined its text value is substituted otherwise the line containing the
> reference is dropped from the output.
See: https://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/chunked/ch30.html
We fix this by simply replacing all occurrences of '{' and '}' with
their escaped forms: '{' and '}'.
Fixes#1101
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.
These flags provide granular control over ripgrep's buffering strategy.
The --line-buffered flag can be genuinely useful in certain types of shell
pipelines. The --block-buffered flag has a murkier use case, but we add it
for completeness.
This commit moves a lot of "utility" code from ripgrep core into
grep-cli. Any one of these things might not be worth creating a new
crate, but combining everything together results in a fair number of a
convenience routines that make up a decent sized crate.
There is potentially more we could move into the crate, but much of what
remains in ripgrep core is almost entirely dealing with the number of
flags we support.
In the course of doing moving things to the grep-cli crate, we clean up
a lot of gunk and improve failure modes in a number of cases. In
particular, we've fixed a bug where other processes could deadlock if
they write too much to stderr.
Fixes#990
These flags each accept one of five choices: none, path, modified,
accessed or created. The value indicates how the results are sorted.
For --sort, results are sorted in ascending order where as for --sortr,
results are sorted in descending order.
Closes#404
This commit adds a 'same_file_system' option to the walk builder. For
single threaded walking, it defers to the walkdir crate, which has the
same option. The bulk of this commit implements this flag for the parallel
walker. We add one very feeble test for this.
The parallel walker is now officially a complete mess.
Closes#321
This also updates some code to make use of our more liberal versioning
requirement, including the use of crossbeam-channel instead of the MsQueue
from the older an unmaintained crossbeam 0.3. This does regrettably add
a sizable number of dependencies, however, compile times seem mostly
unaffected.
Closes#1019
Previously, we used --pcre2-unicode as the canonical flag despite the
fact that it is enabled by default, which is inconsistent with how we
handle other similar flags.
The reason why --pcre2-unicode was made the canonical flag was to make
it easier to discover since it would be sorted near the --pcre2 flag. To
solve that problem, we simply start a convention that lists related
flags in the docs.
Fixes#1022
This commit does the work to delete the old `grep` crate and effectively
rewrite most of ripgrep core to use the new libripgrep crates. The new
`grep` crate is now a facade that collects the various crates that make
up libripgrep.
The most complex part of ripgrep core is now arguably the translation
between command line parameters and the library options, which is
ultimately where we want to be.
This commit adds a new --no-ignore-global flag that permits disabling
the use of global gitignore filtering. Global gitignores are generally
found in `$HOME/.config/git/ignore`, but its location can be configured
via git's `core.excludesFile` option.
Closes#934
This switch explicitly disables the --pre behavior. An empty string will
also disable --pre behavior, but actually utterring an empty flag value
is quite awkward, so we provide an explicit switch to do the same thing.
Thanks to @c-blake for pointing this out.
The --pre flag can result in a pretty large performance penalty, so put
a warning in the flag documentation. This warning is important because a
flag like this could easily wind up in a user's configuration file.
The preprocessor flag accepts a command program and executes this
program for every input file that is searched. Instead of searching the
file directly, ripgrep will instead search the stdout contents of the
program.
Closes#978, Closes#981
This commit does what no software project has ever done before: we've
outright removed a flag with no possible way to recapture its
functionality.
This flag presents numerous problems in that it never really worked well
in the first place, and completely falls over when ripgrep uses the
--no-heading output format. Well meaning users want ripgrep to fix this
by getting into the alignment business by buffering all output, but that
is a line that I refuse to cross.
Fixes#795
The new --no-ignore-messages flag permits suppressing errors related to
parsing .gitignore or .ignore files. These error messages can be somewhat
annoying since they can surface from repositories that one has no control
over.
Fixes#646
This makes it clear that the --no-messages flag doesn't actually
suppress all error messages, and is therefore not equivalent to
redirecting stderr to /dev/null.

This commit provides basic support for a --stats flag, which will print
various aggregate statistics about a search after all of the results
have been printed. This is mostly intended to support a similar feature
found in the Silver Searcher. Note though that we don't emit the total
bytes searched; this is a first pass at an implementation and we can
improve upon it later.
Closes#411, Closes#799
Namely, when ripgrep is asked to count things and is also asked to print
every match on its own line, then we should just automatically count the
matches and not the lines. This is a departure from how GNU grep behaves,
but there is a compelling argument to be made that GNU grep's behavior
doesn't make a lot of sense.
Note that since this changes the behavior of combining two existing
flags, this is a breaking change.
This commit introduces a new flag, --count-matches, which will cause
ripgrep to report a total count of all matches instead of a count of
total lines matched.
Closes#566, Closes#814
This commit adds support for printing 0-based byte offset before each
line. We handle corner cases such as `-o/--only-matching` and
`-C/--context` as well.
Closes#812
This commit cleans up the README and splits portions of it out into
a user guide (GUIDE.md) and a FAQ (FAQ.md). The README now provides a
small list of documentation "quick" links to various parts of the docs.
This commit also does a few other minor touchups.
This adds hidden counter-flags for the following:
-L/--follow [--no-follow]
--hidden [--no-hidden]
--no-ignore [--ignore]
--no-ignore-parent [--ignore-parent]
--no-ignore-vcs [--ignore-vcs]
--no-messages [--messages]
--search-zip [--no-search-zip]
--sort-files [--no-sort-files]
--text [--no-text]
In the above list, the counter-flags are in brackets.
While these flags are hidden, we document the counter-flags in the
documentation for the flags they are countering.
This commit adds support for hidden flags. The purpose of hidden flags
is for things that end users likely won't need unless they have a
configuration file that disables ripgrep's defaults. These flags will
provide a way to re-enable ripgrep's defaults.
This commit uses the recent refactoring for defining flags to
automatically generate a man page. This finally allows us to define the
documentation for each flag in a single place.
The man page is generated on every build, if and only if `asciidoc` is
installed. When generated, it is placed in Cargo's `OUT_DIR` directory,
which is the same place that shell completions live.
This commit makes a small tweak to the --max-columns flag. Namely, if
the value of the flag is 0, then ripgrep behaves as-if the flag were
absent.
This is useful in the context of ripgrep reading configuration from the
environment. For example, an end user might set --max-columns=150, but we
should permit the user to disable this setting when needed. Using -M0 is
a nice way to do that.
We do this because a zero value for --max-columns isn't particularly
meaningful. We do leave the --max-count, --max-filesize and --maxdepth
flags alone though, since a zero value for those flags is potentially
meaningful. (--max-count even has tests for ripgrep's behavior when
given a value of 0.)
We use the new AppSettings::AllArgsOverrideSelf to permit all flags to
be specified multiple times. This removes the need for our previous
work-around where we would enable `multiple` for every flag and then
just extract the last value when consuming clap's matches.
We also add a couple regression tests that ensure repeated switches and
flags work as expected.
