Every query is regex

• .printf dot is a wildcard
• \.printf escaped dot is a dot
• whom?
• OR[[:space:]]IMPLIED multiline search!

Filter results by...

• file:README test (or f:)
• repo:linux test (or r:)
• branch:pages test (or b:)
• lang:java test

Exclude certain kinds of repositories

• fork:no test (or yes)
• public:no test (or yes)
• archived:no test (or yes)

Search for symbol definitions

As identified by universal-ctags.

• sym:main
• sym:Test[A-Z]

Automatic case sensitivity

If a query is all-lowercase, it is case insensitive by default; otherwise it is case-sensitive by default. Change that with case:.

• readme vs readme case:yes
• README vs README case:no

Use double quotes for queries with spaces

Otherwise each word is parsed as a separate expression.

• "run the test"
• "goto considered harmful"

Logically compose expressions

• this -without_this negate with a leading dash
• all of these expressions are implicitly 'and'ed…
• any or of or these …but explicitly 'or'ed
• (all of these) (any or of or these) group expressions with parentheses
