Would you mind sharing how you did the prioritization of the sources when searching?

  Not the original poster, but if I were doing it with find rather than fd (or ag or rg, which I think can do it without fd or find) I'd do (untested) (find "$projroot" -name .git -prune -o -name node_modules -prune -o \ \( -name '*.[tj]s' -o -name '*.[tj]sx' \) -print0 ; find "$projroot"/node_modules \ \( -name '*.[tj]s' -o -name '*.[tj]sx' \) -print0 ; find "$projroot" -name .git -prune -o -name dist -prune -o \ \( -name '*.py' \) -print0 ) | xargs -0 grep /dev/null "$search_pattern" And, although that approach does work (and maybe even that script will work without any bug fixes) it probably goes a substantial distance toward showing why fd was written. Doing the three searches separately and exiting after one succeeds is only slightly more code.

  https://github.com/paddymul/emacs-from-scratch/blob/master/personal/paddy-find-setup.el https://github.com/paddymul/emacs-from-scratch/blob/master/p... and https://github.com/paddymul/emacs-from-scratch/blob/master/personal/find_script.sh https://github.com/paddymul/emacs-from-scratch/blob/master/p... The emacs-lisp for changing the behaviour of consult-grep was quite complex and took a while to write.
