-R flag for grep not universally supported

Attempting to use dot-only-hunter
on Alpine Linux results in a grep
error:
$ dot-only-hunter
Hunting inside 'test' for tests with `.only`...
grep: unrecognized option: R
BusyBox v1.24.2 (2016-08-12 14:38:34 GMT) multi-call binary.
Usage: grep [-HhnlLoqvsriwFE] [-m N] [-A/B/C N] PATTERN/-e PATTERN.../-f FILE [FILE]...
Search for PATTERN in FILEs (or stdin)
-H Add 'filename:' prefix
-h Do not add 'filename:' prefix
-n Add 'line_no:' prefix
-l Show only names of files that match
-L Show only names of files that don't match
-c Show only count of matching lines
-o Show only the matching part of line
-q Quiet. Return 0 if PATTERN is found, 1 otherwise
-v Select non-matching lines
-s Suppress open and read errors
-r Recurse
-i Ignore case
-w Match whole words only
-x Match whole lines only
-F PATTERN is a literal (not regexp)
-E PATTERN is an extended regexp
-m N Match up to N times per file
-A N Print N lines of trailing context
-B N Print N lines of leading context
-C N Same as '-A N -B N'
-e PTRN Pattern to match
-f FILE Read pattern from file
All good!
Furthermore, due to #1, dot-only-hunter reports success in this case.
To solve this one, I'd rather make dot-only-hunter
detect support for -R
and fallback from -R
to -r
if necessary.
Adding the pr-welcome
label.
