no-index Search files in the current directory that is not managed by Git. The above command will print lines matching all the patterns at once. o -print0 and you're done with the 4th line.įinally, on the 5th line is the pipe to xargs which takes each of those resulting files and stores them in a variable FILENAME. Here is the syntax using git grep combining multiple patterns using Boolean expressions: git grep -no-index -e pattern1 -and -e pattern2 -and -e pattern3. If TYPE is without-match, grep assumes that a binary file does not match. If there's a better way of grepping only in certain files, I'm. Searching on grep include, grep include exclude, grep exclude and variants did not find anything relevant. excludePATTERN Recurse in directories skip file matching PATTERN. If you just want "everything else" that remains after pruning the *.gif, *.png, etc. The man page of grep says:-includePATTERN Recurse in directories only searching file matching PATTERN. On the 4th line, you need another -o (it specifies "or" to find), the patterns you DO want, and you need either a -print or -print0 at the end of it. Use as many of these -o -name "." -prune constructs as you have patterns.
On the 2nd and 3rd lines, use "*.png", "*.gif", "*.jpg", and so forth. (current directory) is a valid path, for example. On the first line, you specify the directory you want to search. | xargs -0 -I FILENAME grep -IR "pattern" FILENAME o -name "another_pattern_to_exclude" -prune \ If you are not averse to using find, I like its -prune feature:
GREP OPTIONS NOT PATTERN INSTALL
Also, I can't install anything, so I have to do with common tools (like grep or the suggested find). I can't search only certain directories (the directory structure is a big mess, with everything everywhere). If there's a better way of grepping only in certain files, I'm all for it moving the offending files is not an option. Searching on grep include, grep include exclude, grep exclude and variants did not find anything relevant exclude=PATTERN Recurse in directories skip file matching PATTERN. I know there are the -exclude=PATTERN and -include=PATTERN options, but what is the pattern format? The man page of grep says: -include=PATTERN Recurse in directories only searching file matching PATTERN. As these results are not relevant and slow down the search, I want grep to skip searching these files (mostly JPEG and PNG images). In the directories are also many binary files which match "foo=". It's on a common Linux machine, I have bash shell: grep -ircl "foo=" * I'm looking for the string foo= in text files in a directory tree.
