YYYY? yyyy!
Just as with the previous project, I rushed to the commits to see what was going on. First of all, it's worth noting that the field moved to its derived class, Repository, as a result of refactoring (here's the link to the commit). I searched further and found a commit containing the fix. The 'Y' character in the date pattern has been replaced with 'y':

Sourcegraph is no longer Open Source
[4] is not really a usable 'product'. Livegrep (https://github.com/livegrep/livegrep) was inspired by it and is very usable.
[3] used to be a Google open source project as well, but it fell out of maintenance, and Sourcegraph took it over. It powers most of the basic regex/literal search in Sourcegraph.
Mozilla's code is searchable in Searchfox (https://searchfox.org/) which uses the indexer from Livegrep, combined with their own Git indexer and language-specific cross reference databases.
OpenGrok (https://github.com/oracle/opengrok) is also rather well known, but I have found it to have a slightly worse UI than alternatives.

Improving GitHub Code Search
My job uses https://oracle.github.io/opengrok/ and I'm generally happy with it. It has some problems with special character searches at times but generally does what I want. It's certainly better than code search in our on-prem github instance.

Is there a tool that would allow me to query (structured search) a codebase?
I used it a long time ago, but I see this is still around: https://oracle.github.io/opengrok/
