Oh, maybe I should've been clearer, I'm not really looking for flac files, but working on a plugin to interactively search for files/directories to edit/cd into. Probably looking at Maybe it makes sense to have a flag that sets the exclude flags properly, that would avoid adding this probably uncommon filtering into the tight loops. Also, I noted that there's windows binaries too. I'm not sure how this maps into windows. I think it's still usual to have a single mount drive (or whatever they call C:/ D:/) and no cross mount links (it's even "hard" to create them, I remember there was no GUI), so maybe this is even less important there. I'll try out setting the exclude flags on the plugin side first, if it goes well I'll comment on what needs to be excluded. |
Closing this for now. |
I wanted to list files from / with
fd 'flac$' /
and it retrieves files from network mounts, and things from /proc.Can those be skipped?
I think that if it's desired to go through those filesystems it should be under some non-default flag, it's a sensible default like using
.gitignore
to prune the search space.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
