  • UI Introduce Command Palette

    Expanded fuzzy finder into a command palette. Click, click, click. "Wait? Where's that option gone...? Damn, they changed the UI again!" Say no more, we've got you. We've upgraded our fuzzy finder into a full-blown command palette.

    Jump to parts of Sourcegraph you need quickly and easily. Search files, repositories and symbols in flash. Just CMD/Ctrl + K.

    This is just a starting point to making all parts of Sourcegraph more accessible, and if we're lucky, maybe even reduce some RSI.
