      1 Code Search
      2 ===========
      3 
      4 There are a number of ways to search the Skia codebase, each with advantages and
      5 disadvantages.
      6 
      7 [cs.skia.org](http://cs.skia.org) redirects to
      8 [Chromium code search](https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch) restricted
      9 to the Skia portion of the Chromium tree. You can add a query after the slash;
     10 e.g. [cs.skia.org/foo](http://cs.skia.org/foo) will search for "foo" within the
     11 Skia tree. Chromium code search provides cross-references.
     12 
     13 For Googlers, there is also the option of [the skia depot](http://cs/#skia/) in
     14 internal Code Search. In addition to the
     15 main [skia](http://cs/#skia/skia/) repo, internal Code Search indexes the
     16 [buildbot](http://cs/#skia/buildbot/), [common](http://cs/#skia/common/),
     17 and [skia_internal](https://cs/#skia/skia_internal/) repos. However,
     18 cross-references, history/blame, and code analysis are not available.
     19 
     20 The Github mirrors of the [skia](https://github.com/google/skia) and
     21 [skia-buildbot](https://github.com/google/skia-buildbot) repos are useful for
     22 investigating history and blame, or for exploring release branches or other
     23 branches. However, the search functionality is fairly limited, cross-references
     24 are not available, and in history the original committer's username is replaced
     25 with that person's Github username.
     26 
     27 You can also navigate through the
     28 [Skia repos on googlesource.com](https://skia.googlesource.com/). All commits
     29 appear here first.
