GitHub confirmed to me that their search is not able to find in substrings; this is annoying because if you want to find all affected code among all possibly involved repositories, before a change, you need to clone them and grep locally. In the end this means you need to clone absolutely everything you work with, because otherwise you might miss changing that one repo you didn't think of: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43891605/search-partial-words-in-github-organizations-code https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43891605/search-partial-... I've used Sourcegraph and it was cool; will have a look at this new tool too. But, GitHub pretty please add plain food old grep abilities to your search!
