comby

• Fix: don't traverse directories if exact paths are specified on the command line
• Feature: TOML file format for specifying templates
• Feature: .comby file in TOML format, where using flags="-my-flags" will be appending to comby invocation in the current directory. This file can also be used to specify templates for the directory

Added:

• -exclude option to exclude files

Updated source files to compile with OCaml 4.10.

• exclude-dir option now accepts multiple comma-separated prefixes.

Bug fix for a ZIP64 issue reading the central directory on large ZIP64 files.

• Use custom labels to refer to the same id when generating unique identifiers in rewrite templates. E.g.,

func foo_:[id(unique_label)]() {...} 
var my_function = foo_:[id(unique_label)]

• Fixes a ZIP64 bug when reading a large value for the central directory.

• Putting :[id()] in the rewrite template will generate a unique (with high probability) 12 character hex string. The method uses 48 bits. This is an experimental feature.

Change:

• exempt underscore from inferred equality constraints (#160)

• Adds ZIP64 read support.

• Suppress printing out long strings if they time out.

• Adds experimental optional holes.

• Preserve '\r' in string contents when generating diffs

• Creates diff compatible patches for all trailing newline cases

• Adds functionality to generate patch and git apply compatible patches for special cases where files do not contain trailing newlines.

• Adds substitute option for substituting variables
• Defaults to Javascript/Typescript matchers for .jsx and .tsx extensions
• Now converts and reports line/column numbers for offsets. Lines start at 1, columns start at 1.

• Adds -disable-substring-matching option to disable substring matching
• Adds support for Reason and basic support for Nim

• Minor fix to editor offsets in review mode.

• Adds interactive mode with the -review option. Edit can be set with -editor, and default accept behavior can be toggled with -default-no (as in codemod).
• -match-only returns matches on single lines, prefixed by the matched files, like grep. Newlines are converted to \n.
• Allow rewrite templates to contain [hole\n], [ hole], :[hole.] syntax which substitute for variable hole.

Adds support for nestable alphanumeric delimiters (e.g., def ... end in Ruby,case ... esac in Bash, and begin ... end in OCaml).

• Maps .jsx and .tsx to Javascript
• -json-only-diff flag
• -exclude-dir in zip files
• Extended shorthand match syntax:
  :[x\n] to match until newline
  :[x.] to match alphanumeric and punctuation
  :[ ] or [ x] to match only spaces/tabs
• Adds paren, dyck languages.
