Ripgrep 15.0.0

Summary

Sponsorship is appreciated! ripgrep 15 is a new major version release of ripgrep that mostly has bug fixes, some minor performance improvements and minor new features. In case you haven't heard of it before, ripgrep is a line-oriented search tool that recursively searches the current directory for a regex pattern. By default, ripgrep will respect gitignore rules and automatically skip hidden files/directories and binary files. Here are some highlights: Several bugs around gitignore matching have been fixed. This includes a commonly reported bug related to applying gitignore rules from parent directories. A memory usage regression when handling very large gitignore files has been fixed. rg -vf file, where file is empty, now matches everything. The -r/--replace flag now works with --json. A subset of Jujutsu (jj) repositories are now treated as if they were git repositories. That is, ripgrep will respect jj's gitignores. Globs can now use nested curly braces. Platform support: aarch64 for Windows now has release artifacts. powerpc64 no longer has release artifacts generated for it. The CI release workflow stopped working, and I didn't deem it worth my time to debug it. If someone wants this and can test it, I'd be happy to add it back. ripgrep binaries are now compiled with full LTO enabled. You may notice small performance improvements from this and a modest decrease in binary size. Performance improvements: PERF #2111: Don't resolve helper binaries on Windows when -z/--search-zip isn't used. PERF #2865: Avoid using path canonicalization on Windows when emitting hyperlinks. PERF #3184: Improve performance of large values with -A/--after-context. Bug fixes: BUG #829, BUG #2731, BUG #2747, BUG #2770, BUG #2778, BUG #2836, BUG #2933, BUG #3067: Fix bug related to gitignores from parent directories. BUG #1332, BUG #3001: Make rg -vf file where file is empty match everything. BUG #2177: Ignore a UTF-8 BOM marker at the start of .gitignore (and similar files). BUG #2750: F...
