Personalized search ranking now live
Sourcegraph search results are now more relevant and tailored to each user.
We’ve improved how Sourcegraph ranks results in the main search bar to deliver more relevant results tailored to each user. When you search for something like data router, Sourcegraph now applies best-in-class ranking strategies that better understand your full query - not just keywords in isolation. In addition, we boost results from repositories you’ve recently contributed to, making it easier to find the code you care about faster.
Flexible code search queries - where you are looking for something, but don’t 100% remember the name - has been improved. Below is a before and after for the query contributors job that highlights this improvement and our use of BM25 ranking.
