I mean… it feels obvious that this will index private repositories for users authenticated to access those repositories? I don’t think this will be a separate paid product, just a standard feature as part of paying for GitHub. Sourcegraph will be in the same position as every other SaaS vendor that tries to compete with Microsoft is: a bad one with a worse goto market strategy than MSFT.

Sourcegraph CEO here. I posted my thoughts on the positioning. Code search for Microsoft/GitHub is not a winner-take-all proposition unlike many of their other products (eg Microsoft Teams vs. Slack), so the analogy is a bit different. A lot of code lives outside of GitHub, thanks to developers historically having more freedom and choice.
