The grep drop-down works great for finding file content, but is there some way to find a file by name or glob from gitweb? Something along the lines of find . -iname but the gitweb equivalent.

Not that I know of.

The "File Finder" introduced by GitHub (hit t in a GitHub project page) is not yet implemented in gitweb.

  • Bummer. Maybe this is a good opportunity to exercise my old rusty perl chops and get it added. – engineerC Aug 01 '13 at 17:55
  • @CaptainMurphy That would be great. [Jakub Narębski](http://stackoverflow.com/users/46058/jakub-narebski) maintains gitweb, and will be thrilled to get a contribution. – VonC Aug 01 '13 at 19:31

    Well I submitted the patch to the mailing list, no response yet (3 days later). – engineerC Aug 17 '13 at 04:15
  • Got no response whatsoever, even though I read all the patch submission rules twice and followed them very closely. I know it got there because it's in the mailing list archive. @VonC, do you have any advice for getting some traction? – engineerC Aug 23 '13 at 15:07
  • @CaptainMurphy maybe give them time for 1.8.4 to be released? Or directly contact http://stackoverflow.com/users/46058/jakub-narebski: he might guide you. – VonC Aug 23 '13 at 15:37
