I use ripgrep on git bash for Windows, and my team members act like I’ve got searching superpowers. Searching on windows is such a pain and this makes it easy. Thanks so much for making this fantastic tool!
- stjohnswarts 4y agoI use ripgrep and "everything" all the time on windows to find files and where I put stuff :) . My filing system leaves something to be desired, as does my many idea test folders.
- locusofself 4y agodoesn't vscode use ripgrep under the hood when you search your open files/repos?
- burntsushi 4y agoYes. But you might not be using VS Code. :-)
- wincy 4y agoHaha that’s cool, I do use vs code often but our myriad code bases sometimes I want to search EVERY repo we’ve got at once.
- pjmlp 4y agoMaybe it has been Stockholm syndrom, but findstr/PowerShell have served perfectly alright.
- burntsushi 4y agoHah, w00t. Have your teammates figured out that your superpowers are teachable? :-)
- wincy 4y agoI’m working on it! Most Windows devs have this strange aversion to “old confusing command lines”.
