Make sure that we don't pipe stdin when starting a job (#250)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Starting with version 13, ripgrep always stats stdin and if it's not a
TTY it uses it to read data. Unfortunately, Neovim always attaches a
pipe to stdin by default and that leads to ripgrep reading nothing and
it essentially breaks vim-grepper when targeting a recent version of
ripgrep.

(see neovim/neovim#14812 for more info)

This was fixed in nvim by adding an option to jobstart to not pipe stdin
(see neovim/neovim#14812). So we use this here
which I verified fixes search through rg.

Note that I'm not 100% sure how to gate this. It was technically added
as a commit to neovim after 0.5 shipped so I imagine it will technically
be released in 0.5.1. But it should also be harmless to only gate this
to `nvim` since the options are a dictionary and old versions of neovim
will just ignore that `stdin` key.
