FzF-Lua's live_grep() does not find word in project

[oskargirardin]

When using require("fzf-lua").live_grep(), searching for publications does not find the following matches:

            <li class="nav-item">
              <a href="/publications/" class="nav-link">
                <i class="fa-fw fas fa-book"></i>
                <span>PUBLICATIONS</span>
              </a>
            </li>

It only finds the following match:

# Publications

Both files are in my project. When using require("fzf-lua").lgrep_curbuf() it works as expected.

Do you know why this is the case ? Thanks !

Curbuf variants are just current buffer, use debug=1 and examine the command in the first output line, run it in the shell and understand why rg isn’t finding the word, after all fzf-lua just echoes the output of rg with additional processing.

SOLVED: file was among .gitignore
