Re: [PATCH] grep: skip UTF8 checks explicitally

Hi Carlo,

On Sun, 21 Jul 2019, Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belón wrote:
Usually PCRE is compiled with JIT support, and therefore the code
path used includes calling pcre2_jit_match (for PCRE2), that ignores
invalid UTF-8 in the corpus.

Make that option explicit so it can be also used when JIT is not
enabled and pcre2_match is called instead, preventing `git grep`
to abort when hitting the first binary blob in a fixed match
after ed0479ce3d ("Merge branch 'ab/no-kwset' into next", 2019-07-15)
Good idea.

The flag has been in PCRE1 since at least March 5, 2007, when the
pcre.h.in file was first recorded in their Subversion repository:
https://vcs.pcre.org/pcre/code/trunk/pcre.h.in?view=log

It also was part of PCRE2 from the first revision (rev 4, in fact, where
pcre2.h.in was added):
https://vcs.pcre.org/pcre2/code/trunk/src/pcre2.h.in?view=log

So I am fine with this patch.

Thanks,
Dscho
