A Search view next to Explorer and Changes, like VS Code's.

  • Query box: has Match case, Whole word and Regular expression toggles, and searches as you type.
  • Results: grouped by file (collapsible), with line numbers and the matches highlighted. Click a result, or press Enter on it, to open the file at that line; ↓ moves from the box into the results.
  • Ctrl+Shift+F, or "Search in files" in the palette, opens it. Text selected in the editor or page becomes the query.
  • Server: devdesk attach --fs-grep SESSION FLAGS QUERY uses git grep in a repository (tracked + untracked, .gitignore honoured). Elsewhere it uses grep -r without node_modules, .git, build and cache folders. Binary files are skipped. It returns at most 2000 lines, each cut to 400 characters, and has a bats test.
