Apologies for the late response. I am reluctant to add a bunch of options for several reasons. It adds complexity, makes testing difficult due to all the different option combinations, it makes the docs more daunting, etc. With that said, if the default rg options aren't suitable, I think it would be better just do have an |

| As a result, files added to git, _but also ignored by git_, will not be included. While not common, this is something that git allows. If this becomes a problem you can work around it by either changing your git ignore patterns, editing the file in neovim in some other way, (thereby adding it to the history), or by using ripgrep's `.ignore` file for overriding git. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
afaik, this is still a limitation. Ripgrep will not list a file that is added to git if it also matches a .gitignore pattern. (I believe git ls-files does the right thing here, and would list such files.)
I can create this extra_rg_args option, it would help me a lot, because I need to follow links. What do you think? |
These four options are brought from the find_files finder of Telescope. Default option for no_ignore is false therefore unlike the current behaviour all files from .gitignore will be ignored (as it is always done with Telescope and massively improve performance)
