Cool.

I assumed it uses ripgrep (or the underlying walkdir) because that's the established high-performance tool for this. But apparently not.

It uses https://docs.rs/ignore/latest/ignore/ to walk dirs while respecting ignore files

(And `ignore` uses `walkdir` internally)

For single threaded use cases. For multi-threaded, it has its own parallel directory traversal. :-)
