This lets us implement correct Unicode trimming and also simplifies the
parsing logic a bit. This also removes the last platform specific bits of
code in ripgrep core.
This changes how ripgrep emit exit status codes. In particular, any error
that occurs while searching will now cause ripgrep to emit a `2` exit
code, where as it previously would emit either a `0` or a `1` code based
on whether it matched or not. That is, ripgrep would only emit a `2` exit
code for a catastrophic error.
This tweak includes additional logic that GNU grep adheres to, which seems
like good sense. Namely, if -q/--quiet is given, and an error occurs and
a match occurs, then ripgrep will emit a `0` exit code.
Closes#1159
Previously, we relied on clap to handle printing either an error
message, or --help/--version output, in addition to setting the exit
status code. Unfortunately, for --help/--version output, clap was
panicking if the write failed, which can happen in fairly common
scenarios via a broken pipe error. e.g., `rg -h | head`.
We fix this by using clap's "safe" API and doing the printing ourselves.
We also set the exit code to `2` when an invalid command has been given.
Fixes#1125 and partially addresses #1159
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 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.
