Finding files on GitHub

You can search for a file in a repository using the file finder. To search for a file in multiple repositories on GitHub Enterprise Server, use the filename code search qualifier.

  • You can also open the file finder by pressing t on your keyboard. For more information, see "Keyboard shortcuts."
