Supercharging Developer Productivity With Advanced Code Search
summary
Claims that Sourcegraph indexes 2.1 million repositories and lets teams search private and public code without cloning, then demonstrates three concrete search modes: literal/regex/structural search (examples: finding all uses of Suspense, unstable_batchUpdates, or package.json versions), shows narrowing by language, file, branch patterns, and running repository-wide structural queries for try/catch or if blocks, and highlights actionable features like batch changes and code-monitoring for large-scale automated edits.
