[X] I have a different issue.
What version of ripgrep are you using?
ripgrep 14.1.0
How did you install ripgrep?
DNF / Pacman
What operating system are you using ripgrep on?
Fedora Silverblue 40 / Arch Linux
Describe your bug.
Ripgrep fails to give ANYTHING inside the /tmp/(gibberish) files. grep -R works tho, but grep -r. Why? Is grep better than ripgrep? It seems so to me. One works, the other doesn't, even with rg -e flags.
What are the steps to reproduce the behavior?
I want to search a certain string inside a pkg build made by paru (arch linux build). The string is "ld -z", thing is. RipGrep can't search even basic text like "Build" (there's a lot of build text inside the folder). grep -r doesn't work either. But grep -R does. What's the matter with the /tmp files? even with sudo it doesn't find anything.
What is the actual behavior?
$ rg -e "ld -z" /tmp/aurmkulYq/ and I get no output.
$ rg -e "Build" /tmp/aurmkulYq/ still no output.
$ grep -R "Build" /tmp/aurmkulYq/

... This is too long, but you get the idea.
So... is gnu grep better than ripgrep? One works, the other doesn't. Huh~
What is the expected behavior?
At least with rg -e "Build" /tmp/aurmkulYq it should output something
