issue
when searching in my company's repository for an exact string (in my case:
ExternalEntityIngestionService
inget-wrecked/medal-backend
) it only delivers 2 of 3 results. ironically, it excludes the definition of this class from the search.i presume this might be bug in indexing but ive tried searching with the
repo:get-wrecked/medal-backend
and the repository isnt new (as other discussion items mentioned). hoping this isnt widespread :)emotional context
after leaving meta im highly dependent on strong code search for due diligence on auditing backend callsites. its pretty frightening to get an inconsistent result on code search. i dont want to live in fear.
