Bug 523866 – sys-apps/the_silver_searcher - add *.ebuild and *.eclass to supported file types

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description M8R-u38wij 2014-09-27 11:14:24 UTC]

'ag' can restrict the search to certain types of files e.g.:
ag --html <keyword>

Supported types can be listed with:
ag --list-file-types

Proposed patch adds *.ebuild and *.eclass to supported types so one cat use
ag --ebuild <keyword>
insted of
ag --file-search-regex '.*\.ebuild' <keyword>


Reproducible: Always

Submitted upstream: https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher/pull/503

Upstream is pretty friendly and good with supporting patches so we'll do this via upstream without carrying a distro-specific patch if at all possible.

This patch was accepted by upstream. Will close this issue once a release is made and the version is bumped in Gentoo.

Upstream has merged the PR in question. I'm closing this.

Also forgot to mention that the ebuild has long since been updated.
