I'm not sure why, but GitHub's search engine, Blackbird, seems to be returning some erroneous results for this query:
/tnt_select\(.*2\^32/ language:C++ OR language:CAny chance you could narrow down your search to a list of repose that use the library that pulls in
tnt_select()function, then clone and manually grep just those, or is it's use too common to index by?Real funny that even narrowing down GitHub search to just the same repo doesn't help the query results:
repo:ocelot-inc/ocelotgui ldbms_tnt_selectI have considered that approach. I'd probably do it in the cloud, in parallel, maybe even in a serverless compute environment. But it does seem like a big endeavor.
