We currently implement globs by converting them to regexes, and in doing
so, sometimes use grouping. In all but one case, we used non-capturing
groups. But for alternations, we used capturing groups, which was likely
just an oversight. We don't make use of capture groups at all, and while
they usually don't have any overhead, they lead to weird cases like this
one: https://github.com/rust-lang/regex/issues/1059
That particular issue is also a bug in the regex crate itself, which is
fixed in https://github.com/rust-lang/regex/pull/1062. Note though that
the bug fix in the regex crate is required. Even with this patch to
globset, memory usage is reduced (by about half in rust-lang/regex#1059)
but is not returned to where it was prior to the regex 1.9 release.
This leaves the grep-regex crate in tatters. Pretty much the entire
thing needs to be re-worked. The upshot is that it should result in some
big simplifications. I hope.
The idea here is to drop down and actually use regex-automata 0.3
instead of the regex crate itself.
Previous, 'foo/**' would match 'foo', but it shouldn't have. In this
case, not matching 'foo' is what is documented and also seems consistent
with other recursive globbing implementations (like that in zsh).
This also updates the prefix extractor to pull 'foo/' out of 'foo/**'.
Closes#1756
The top-level listing was just getting a bit too long for my taste. So
put all of the code in one directory and shrink the large top-level mess
to a small top-level mess.
NOTE: This commit only contains renames. The subsequent commit will
actually make ripgrep build again. We do it this way with the naive hope
that this will make it easier for git history to track the renames.
Sigh.
