bar VS stack-graphs

$ pass git remote add origin https://github.com/foo/bar.git

git clone https://github.com/foo/bar /some/directory. Even better, set up ssh keypair and clone via ssh, so you don't need to type your username and password each time you push. The correct address will be on GitHub, under green Clone button, just change it from https to ssh.

Yes, just change the URL from https://github.com/foo/bar to https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/foo/bar to be dropped in to a code search for that GH repo.

nchecker. Also, https://github.com/foo/bar/releases.atom

This seems very good.

1. This looks like Notion, which is good. Notion succeeded by being pretty.

2. It feels...I don't know the way to say it, but the appropriately level of solid (I don't accidentally drag and drop stuff), fast, and just easy to use. No non-modal mix of commands and typing makes entering information frustrating. It feels like typing into Notepad. It's frustration-free.

3. I would like if the dashboard showed unscheduled tasks (as a collapsible section at the very bottom, below Completed.)

4. I have TODOs of the form "Deploy XYZ" and ideally they would be "Deploy XYZ - https://github.com/foo/bar/pull/1337" -- but this adds a lot of clutter to the task list. If there were a way to add details or attach notes to tasks, that would be helpful. (It would also add clutter, so be careful. Just a "Details" link next to "Schedule" and the tags might work. Make it open a note on the right, perhaps?)

5. The "Schedule" link below each item makes me think I haven't scheduled the item, but I have. It should say "Today" (when I'm looking at today on the dashboard).

6. The importing of calendars scared me as it populated a giant list, including my coworkers calendars that I've subscribed to (but have set to not display), but turned out fine. Only the ones I have set to display in Google Calendar display in Emery by default. The import UX maaaaybe could be better / less aggressive, but it works.

7. The dichotomy between "schedule this for today" and "add this to a specific time on my calendar" still exists, and frustrates me, but the ability to sort the tasks helps.

8. It's good that this is opinionated. Stay focused and reject most feature requests, including mine.

9. You got me to enter my credit card before I even got to play around with it. That's impressive, but you are definitely cutting your top-of-funnel with that requirement. (Maybe it pays off by increasing conversion at the free trial->paid step, or maybe you only want true believers at the beginning, but the payment form would usually have turned me away.)

10. Can I export my data? In seven days, am I going to have to manually copy-and-paste all my notes and outstanding TODOs back into my old system if I decide this isn't for me? This risk also makes me hesitant to go all-in during the trial period. (An export wouldn't fully solve this, since I'd then have a messy JSON file or something to deal with, but I'd feel a little better about it.)

Thank you, I tested this and it looks very promising. It does in fact change the composer.json accordingly, so I can use this command instead of hand-editing the json file. This means that I have commit to my git repo a `path` repository pointing to my dev package, but in my Dockerfile for production build I can run composer config repositories.foo vcs https://github.com/foo/bar to change "foo" on the fly to something else (e.g. git)

// We have to discard the first read of this sensor because of a know bug // in its firmware. Remove the redundant read after this issue has been resolved: // https://github.com/foo/bar/issues/10 temperatureSensor.read(); let temp = temperatureSensor.read();

$ git clone https://github.com/foo/bar.git

The best thing about the Sourcegraph instance hosted on sourcegraph.com is that you can edit the URL in your browser from https://github.com/foo/bar to https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/foo/bar to be dropped down into a Sourcegraph search for that GH repo. I've been using it for a long time because of this convenience.

(Though it would be even better if the two options for case-sensitivity and regex search were enabled by default instead of needing me to toggle them on every time.)

> I think you can get the wiki with plain old 'git' ? I forget ...

This is correct. The wiki for a repo is accessible as a separate repository named with a suffix of “.wiki”.

So if user foo has a repo bar with an associated wiki, and the repo URL is https://github.com/foo/bar then you can clone the repo and the wiki respectively over SSH by:

    git clone [email protected]:foo/bar.git

https://github.com/pyjarrett/septum

The hardest part about getting code search right imo is grabbing the right amount of surrounding context, which septum is aimed at solving on a per-file basis.

Another one I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned is stack-graphs (https://github.com/github/stack-graphs), which tries to incrementally resolve symbolic relationships across the whole codebase. It powers github's cross-file precise indexing and conceptually makes a lot of sense, though I've struggled to get the open source version to work

I don't think what you are saying is actually true for stack-graphs[0][1].

I think GitHub still has some use for tree-sitter. In this post it's mentioned that their new code navigation system is based on tree-sitter. In a more recent post they welcome contributers to add special code navigation queries to existing languages. You can find their public repository here if you want to follow along with any developments. Since their code navigation system relies heavily on tree-sitter I don't think it's going anywhere soon (fingers crossed).

Which they implement in Rust. https://github.com/github/stack-graphs

As mentioned elsewhere on this thread, stack graphs and Semantic were built by the same team (which I manage). Semantic is not abandoned, we've just been focusing on a different layer of our tech stack for the past year or so. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29501389

That PR on the Semantic repo was our first attempt at implementing these ideas. We decided to reimplement it in a separate library (also open source, https://github.com/github/stack-graphs), which only builds on tree-sitter directly so that there's an easier story for us and language communities to add support for new languages. It's a fair point that we could have closed the Semantic PR to indicate that more clearly.
