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 updates the OverrideBuilder and GitignoreBuilder docs
for the case_insensitive method, denoting that it must be called before
adding any patterns.
When writing paths like `!/foo` in gitignore files (or when using the
-g/--glob flag), the presence of `!` would prevent the gitignore builder
from noticing the leading slash, which causes absolute path matching to
fail.
Fixes#405
This was probably a transcription error when moving the ignore matcher
code out of ripgrep core. Specifically, the override glob matcher should
not ignore directories if they don't match.
Fixes#206
This PR introduces a new sub-crate, `ignore`, which primarily provides a
fast recursive directory iterator that respects ignore files like
gitignore and other configurable filtering rules based on globs or even
file types.
This results in a substantial source of complexity moved out of ripgrep's
core and into a reusable component that others can now (hopefully)
benefit from.
While much of the ignore code carried over from ripgrep's core, a
substantial portion of it was rewritten with the following goals in
mind:
1. Reuse matchers built from gitignore files across directory iteration.
2. Design the matcher data structure to be amenable for parallelizing
directory iteration. (Indeed, writing the parallel iterator is the
next step.)
Fixes#9, #44, #45
