Correction: Public code on Github.
This looks to be restricted to searching Github only.. even though it had "context:global" on the querystring every hit came from Github, and none seen from Gitlab, Codeberg, Sourcehut and other self-hosted forges (e.g. Forgejo).
- cqqxo4zV46cp 2y agoI’m sure there are 50 other ways you could categorise all the code that it searches. Nobody said that it exhaustively searches all available open-source code. I’m sure you know that that’s an impossible claim. This isn’t a correction at all. It is, at best, an elaboration. Certainly not worthy of the snark you’re giving. The reality is that GitHub hosts >99% of all open-source source code that anyone really cares about. If you have some philosophical issue with it, that’s fine, but don’t shoot the messenger by attacking individuals.
