ripgrep 0.10.0:
This is a new minor version release of ripgrep that contains some major new
features, a huge number of bug fixes, and is the first release based on
libripgrep. The entirety of ripgrep's core search and printing code has been
rewritten and generalized so that anyone can make use of it.
Major new features include PCRE2 support, multi-line search and a JSON output
format.
BREAKING CHANGES:
The minimum version required to compile Rust has now changed to track the
latest stable version of Rust. Patch releases will continue to compile with
the same version of Rust as the previous patch release, but new minor
versions will use the current stable version of the Rust compile as its
minimum supported version.
The match semantics of -w/--word-regexp have changed slightly. They used
to be \b(?:<your pattern>)\b, but now it's
(?:^|\W)(?:<your pattern>)(?:$|\W). This matches the behavior of GNU grep
and is believed to be closer to the intended semantics of the flag. See
#389 for more details.
Feature enhancements:
FEATURE #162:
libripgrep is now a thing. The primary crate is
grep.
FEATURE #176:
Add -U/--multiline flag that permits matching over multiple lines.

FEATURE #997:
The --passthru flag now works with the --replace flag.
FEATURE #1038-1:
Add --line-buffered and --block-buffered for forcing a buffer strategy.
FEATURE #1038-2:

BUG #922:
ripgrep is now more robust with respect to memory maps failing.
BUG #937:

BUG #1013:
Add compile time and runtime CPU features to --version output.
BUG #1028:
Don't complete bare pattern after -f in zsh.
ripgrep 0.9.0:
BREAKING CHANGES:
When --count and --only-matching are provided simultaneously, the
behavior of ripgrep is as if the --count-matches flag was given. That is,
the total number of matches is reported, where there may be multiple matches
per line. Previously, the behavior of ripgrep was to report the total number
of matching lines. (Note that this behavior diverges from the behavior of
GNU grep.)
Octal syntax is no longer supported. ripgrep previously accepted expressions
like \1 as syntax for matching U+0001, but ripgrep will now report an
error instead.
The --line-number-width flag has been removed. Its functionality was not
carefully considered with all ripgrep output formats.
See #795 for more
details.

Java and Puppet.
FEATURE #411:

Support \u{..} Unicode escape sequences.
FEATURE #812:
Add -b/--byte-offset flag that shows the byte offset of each matching line.

https://github.com/BurntSushi/termcolor
FEATURE #934:
Add a new flag, --no-ignore-global, that permits disabling global
gitignores.
