Are you referring to me? I only posted once in this thread and it was just my genuine opinion, which I considered relatively anodyne. Surprises are rarely delightful when I'm coding and I'm not always assiduous enough to read all the man pages. That's not burntsushi's fault, and not necessarily a design flaw. On the other hand I think it's fair to mention that it violates a popular (but not universal) software design principle. If you just wanted the gitignore magic then you can use `git grep` or the `--exclude` flag and save yourself installing ripgrep.
