Pretty cool that Linus Torvalds invented a completely distributed version control system and 20 years later we all use it to store our code in a single place.

Plenty of people use Codeberg and Gitlab. And it's still distributed - I don't need to lock files and ask coworkers if I can work on them.

Maybe if Git had native support for PRs and issues this wouldn't have happened. (And yes I'm aware of git send-email etc.)

In Codeberg, how does one even search for files containing a given string? Probably the #1 thing I do on GitHub is searching for files in a project containing a given string.

Given how terrible GitHub search in files is, what I usually do is clone the repo and run ripgrep.

But Github is actually pretty good at searching for something across all files in a repo.

Not remotely as good as grep.app.

I was shocked at how fast I was able to find "Open an audio file and read as mono waveform, resampling as necessary" of whisperX in audio.py on grep.app.

It was instantaneous. But where do I go from there? I cannot navigate through the code. It shows me where I can find that string, but that's it. I also cannot look at blame to see when that line got edited.

Though thanks a lot for bringing this onto my radar.
