It didn't make sense for --quiet to be part of the printer, because --quiet
doesn't just mean "don't print," it also means, "stop after the first
match is found." This needs to be wired all the way up through directory
traversal, and it also needs to cause all of the search workers to quit
as well. We do it with an atomic that is only checked with --quiet is
given.
Fixes#116.
This was a result of misinterpreting a feature in grep where NUL bytes
are replaced with \n. The primary reason for doing this is to avoid
excessive memory usage on truly binary data. However, grep only does this
when searching binary files as if they were binary, and which only reports
whether the file matched or not. When grep is told to search binary data
as text (the -a/--text flag), then it doesn't do any replacement so we
shouldn't either.
In general, this makes sense, because the user is essentially asserting
that a particular file that looks like binary is actually text. In that
case, we shouldn't try to replace any NUL bytes.
ripgrep doesn't actually support searching binary data for whether it
matches or not, so we don't actually need the replace_buf function.
However, it does seem like a potentially useful feature.
Closes#26.
Acts like --count but emits only the paths of files with matches,
suitable for piping to xargs. Both mmap and no-mmap searches terminate
after the first match is found. Documentation updated and tests added.
For example, when only a single file (or stdin) is being searched, then we
should be able to print directly to the terminal instead of intermediate
buffers. (The buffers are only necessary for parallelism.)
Closes#4.
