Tell HN: GitHub Search Unusable Now.
I have a ton of repositories in my organization.
In the past I was able to use the search functionality to search my entire organization for occurrences of some code. Now I can no longer do that.
"Your search did not match any code"
It says that during the preview period not all code is indexed.
Does this mean that I will be able to search my organization repositories once this preview period is over?
Is there a way for me to use the old search?
- KomoD 4y agoYes, you can disable the new search: Top right, click on your profile picture, click "Feature preview", on "New Code Search and Code View" click "Disable"
- moomoo11 4y agoThank you!
- skilled 4y agoFrom what I have seen/heard - GitHub has plans to remove the "Recently updated" search feature from the new search. That is a completely stupid and ignorant decision, and I am so angry about it I think I'd risk my HN account to express the full spectrum of my feelings. Like, what the fuck.... am I supposed to be at the mercy of some algorithm now to find relevant and fresh code? I'd love to see the person who came up with this idea to give a talk on why they think it is a good idea. https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/48301#discussioncomment-5689882 https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/48301#discussi...
