The point is to search hidden files that are tracked by git. An example is CI scripts which are stored in places like .woodpecker, .forgejo, .gitlab-ci-yml.

One thing you might consider to make this more streamlined for you is this:
Or whatever you need to whitelist specific hidden directories/files.For example, ripgrep has `!/.github/` in its `.ignore` file at the root of the repository[1].
By adding the `!`, these files get whitelisted even though they are hidden. Then `rg` with no extra arguments will search them automatically while still ignoring other hidden files/directories.
