Is this a Sourcegraph killer or does SG have other features that still keep it competitive?
1 comments

We (Sourcegraph) have other features to stay competitive. One thing we have been working on indexing other code hosts like Eclipse Foundation, Crates.io, etc.

We put this together anticipating these questions: https://docs.sourcegraph.com/getting-started/github-vs-sourc...

We also just launched Search Ranking and Relevance: https://about.sourcegraph.com/blog/new-search-ranking

More to come! And BTW we are happy to have competition, GitHub is a great brand and it will only make code search better for all developers.

Thanks for the response and for having a doc ready. Code search definitely seems to be on the rise as a needed tool
You're welcome. We agree, good times ahead =)
