  NOTE: filesToReplace and filesToIgnore can contain glob patterns and/or a comma-separated list.
        With glob patterns, make sure to enclose in quotes!

The replacements file must contain a JSON array, consisting itself of arrays of size 2, e.g.

[ "from1", "to1" , "from2", "to2" ]

Check the replace-in-file documentation to learn about regexes, glob patterns,...

Roadmap

• Allow replacements file to contain a JSON object, for simple scenarios.
• Allow comments in replacments file somehow.
• Recursive replacements (but beware of endless loops).
• Support advanced replace-in-file options: ignore file, dsiable globs, specify encoding
• Make escapeReplacementString optional.
