Description-en: Recursively searches directories for a regex pattern
ripgrep is a line-oriented search tool that recursively searches your current
directory for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore rules and
automatically skip hidden files/directories (smart filtering) and binary files.
ripgrep is similar to other popular search tools like The Silver Searcher, ack
and grep.
.
ripgrep is generally faster than both The Silver Searcher and GNU grep. It
defaults to recursive directory search and won't search files ignored by your
`.gitignore` files. Use ripgrep if you like speed, filtering by default, fewer
bugs, and Unicode support.
.
On the other hand, if you like multiline search, then ripgrep may not quite
meet your needs (yet), and it will never support fancy regex features such as
backreferences or lookaround
.
This package contains the following binaries built from the Rust crate
"ripgrep":
- rg
