Wonder what this will mean for Sourcegraph and other code search engines as a player like GitHub enters the space.
Also there is no money to be made in public code search. Take my word for it. However it is something that all code hosing repository should probably have as a useful too, even if it’s not a direct revenue stream.
I don’t think this will be a separate paid product, just a standard feature as part of paying for GitHub. Sourcegraph will be in the same position as every other SaaS vendor that tries to compete with Microsoft is: a bad one with a worse goto market strategy than MSFT.
