A huge thanks to everyone who helped make this release happen! :tada:

A quick note to any packagers. The generated shell completions and man page are now in the gen directory of the repo. They're also included in the pre-built release artifacts on the releases page.

Improvements

• #115 Do not replace symlink with output file (@SimplyDanny)
  • Fixes an issue where a symlink would be replaced with a regular file
• #124 Fix tests (@Linus789)
  • Removed displaying the file path when passing the --preview flag and fixed how text coloring was handled in tests

Breaking

• #192 Rename --string-mode to --fixed-strings (@CosmicHorrorDev)
  • Renamed -s --string-mode to -f --fixed-strings to better match similar tools
  • -s and --string-mode will still continue to work for backwards compatibility, but are no longer documented
• #258 Error on $<num><non_num> capture replacement names (@CosmicHorrorDev)
  • Previously when you tried to use a numbered capture group right before some letters in the replacement text (e.g. $1foo) then it would be considered the impossible-to-use 1foo capture. The correct way to pass the numbered capture group in this case would be to surround the number with curly braces like so ${1}foo. The error just detects this case and informs the user of the issue

Docs

• #93 Add note about in-place file modification to --help output (@jchook)
• #148 Doc: nitpick -- has no special meaning to shells (@hexagonrecursion)

• #207 Documenting $ escape (@yahkbar)

• #227 Improve README readability (@vassudanagunta)
  • Various formatting improvements
• #231 Use clap_mangen and roff to generate manpage (@nc7s)
  • This change ensures the man page contents stay in sync with the CLI automatically, and fixes some broken rendering of the existing manpage
• #243 Exclude unsupported packages from the repology badge (@CosmicHorrorDev)
