This release fixes a number of bugs related to gitignore matching as well as some performance improvements in directory tree traversal.

In case you haven't heard of it before, ripgrep is a line-oriented search tool that recursively searches the current directory for a regex pattern. By default, ripgrep will respect gitignore rules and automatically skip hidden files/directories and binary files.

Platform support:

• aarch64-unknown-linux-musl is now included in the release binaries for ripgrep.

Performance improvements:

• PERF [#3293]: Improves directory traversal time on very large corpora.

Feature enhancements:

• FEATURE [#3275]: ripgrep now respects GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL and GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM.

Bug fixes:

• BUG [#3212]: Don't check for the existence of .jj when --no-ignore is used.
• BUG [#3320], BUG [#3376], BUG [#3419]: Fix gitignore matching bug when searching across multiple directories.
