ripgrep 0.2.1: request for new portfile

[hmeine (Hans Meine)]

Having a blazingly fast search tool handy is of extremely high value, as I am sure you know yourself. ripgrep is faster than {grep, git grep, ag, ack, grin, rak, ucg, pt, sift}, see ​http://blog.burntsushi.net/ripgrep/

Unfortunately, I have no experience with writing Portfiles, and I don't know much about Rust either (which ripgrep is based on / programmed with). But here's some hopefully useful information:

• Official homepage: ​https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep
• Official release downloads: ​https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/releases
  • The Homebrew source build formula [1] uses "​https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/archive/#{version}.tar.gz" as URL
  • Similarly, the Arch community package [2] uses "​https://github.com/BurntSushi/$pkgname/archive/$pkgver.tar.gz"
• Pointers to other packages can be found here: ​https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/issues/10
• [1] ​https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/issues/10#issuecomment-249351411
• [2] ​https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/ripgrep

I wanted to mention build-time dependencies:

• rust >= 1.9.0 (MacPorts already has 1.11.0)
• cargo (MacPorts has 0.11.0)

And here are the hashes for version 0.2.1 (as seen in the above-mentioned Arch package as well):

• md5: f6e4149723fb5974acf787565c2e24cd
• sha1: f8c9247b6c01b9d610abefd296ae0559770cbacd
• sha256: 372ccd0a93c98e9f3cc51644a9c52d1d8437ecb8b0e2908b33df9a46ca7b9ee2

I could successfully build that tarball using "cargo build --release" in the source directory after unpacking, with rust/cargo from MacPorts.
