I have to agree here. I love ripgrep, but at times I've had to go back to regular grep because I couldn't figure out what it was ignoring and why, and there were far too many settings to figure it out.

FYI, `-uu` turns off both ignoring based on special files (.gitignore, etc) and ignoring hidden files.

And if you want to ignore what you want rg to ignore, not what you want git to ignore? Can you do that?

--no-ignore-vcs

Or some combination of --no-ignore (or -u/--unrestricted) with --ignore-file or --glob.
