 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
