Cmd+T style searching #6

Open bobthecow opened 12 years ago

bobthecow commented 12 years ago

I've got a bajillion repos and forks. My organization has a bunch more. They don't seem to be sorted in any sort of order, so it's a bit difficult to find the one I'm looking for.

I'd love a Cmd+T-style (fuzzy) search. When I click the Qh or hit a system wide hotkey, the top item in the menu would be a search box, much like the one under the Help menu. Ideally it would be automatically focused. Typing a couple of characters would change the menu into a search result set. Something like this:

just rip off the OS X UI :-P

The titles on the left could separate Repos, Organizations, Issues, etc into facets.

All items are sorted by default by the github API. I think that repos are sorted by creation date for now. I planned to add ordering options. Hot keys are also planned and should arrive soon. Same for the search box.

I feel the same way about ordering options as polling configuration. It should be intuitive. You're currently sorting repos alphabetically which is a good start. But by username instead of repo making finding starred repos unworkable. Search bar would be awesome though. That alone would merit a higher price.
