Search in general in Gitlab is painful. Searches seem to require 3 or more characters, but if you put two you just don't see any results. No warning saying add more. Pretty intuitive.

- tikkabhuna 7y agoThat's good to know, thanks! Gitlab is one of the few products where I look forward to each release. You guys are doing a great job at keeping interest high and your communication is great.
