7 years ago

This is a new minor version release of ripgrep that includes a couple very
minor breaking changes, a few new features and lots of bug fixes.

This version of ripgrep upgrades its regex dependency from 0.1 to 0.2,
which includes a few minor syntax changes:

  • POSIX character classes now require double bracketing. Previously, the regex
    [:upper:] would parse as the upper POSIX character class. Now it parses
    as the character class containing the characters :upper:. The fix to this
    change is to use [[:upper:]] instead. Note that variants like
    [[:upper:][:blank:]] continue to work.
  • The character [ must always be escaped inside a character class.
  • The characters &, - and ~ must be escaped if any one of them are
    repeated consecutively. For example, [&], [\&], [\&\&], [&-&] are all
    equivalent while [&&] is illegal. (The motivation for this and the prior
    change is to provide a backwards compatible path for adding character class
    set notation.)

    Ruby, Swig
