Hint on how to find git or vscode working directories

[piyo]

I just learned of this tip from somewhere and I see it is already mentioned indirectly.

This is how I search for git working directories:

Code: Select all

wfn:child:.git

This is how I search for Visual Studio Code working folders:

Code: Select all

wfn:child:.vscode

wfn: is short for wholefilename: It seems like child:wfn:.git does not work.
child: and wfn: have been available for a long time, at least since version 1.3.4 but I just figured this out now.

Also it would be pedantically correct if there was a way to make sure the child found is a folder.
Unfortunately something like

Code: Select all

folder:wfn:child:.git

does not work.

[void]

It seems like child:wfn:.git does not work.

wfn: is a search modifier.
child: is a search function.

Search modifiers MUST come before search functions.

search-modifier1:search-modifier2:search-modifier3:search-function:

Also it would be pedantically correct if there was a way to make sure the child found is a folder.

child: will only match folders. The folder: search modifier is not necessary.

Is wfn.git returning file results? do you have any OR operators (|) in your search?
