One thing you might consider to make this more streamlined for you is this:
$ printf '!.woodpecker\n!.forgejo\n!.gitlab-ci-yml\n' > .rgignore
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.

That's a great suggestion for .rgignore and ~/.rgignore.
