I tried this in my Grasp account, a search engine that is pre-loaded with all the Hacker News blogs and other select technical website, and builds results in associated degrees of relations from there. It came up with 8 repos searching for:
https://usegrasp.com/search?q=github+%E2%80%9Ctnt_select%E2%80%9D+
Also I want to say, your scenario is troublesome that GitHub itself could not come up with a satisfactory answer. Strange.
Any chance you'd be willing to share those results? The site isn't accepting signups any more.
Looks like things at Grasp have changed dramatically and it's offline with a promise to open source the code? Did you try a
symbolsearch while logged in, and selecting "code" or "packages" in the results filter?https://github.com/search?q=symbol%3Atnt_select&type=code
There are a few results, but not the one I'm looking for, and none like it.
They have github.com/search, but for some reason it returns zero results... presumably it's a limitation (optimisation?) of their search index.
