A tool for searching Git repositories using regular expressions. It searches all blobs reachable from HEAD and tags.

It's currently a REPL based tool, though I'll turn it into a daemon soon and add a MessagePack interface.

• FAST.
• Uses all logical cores during search, without use of locks or CAS (compare-and-swap).
• Uses PCRE with its JIT enabled.

make

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/meanie/built/lib/

./meanie path/to/git/repo

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/meanie/built/lib/

./meanie path/to/git/repo

apt-get install build-essential git-core pkg-config libglib2.0 cmake

• Stream from disk to support very large/multiple repositories.
• Communicate using MessagePack.
• Walk branches also.
• Restrict search to specific ref.
