Reported by oatkin...@gmail.com, Jul 15, 2011
Affected Version:2.1.6.1

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.on http://review.source.gogoego.com/#mine
2.type "/" to enter search
3.type scala-gwt

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected it would find projects with scala-gwt in them.

it actually shows an error

Application Error

Server Error

Invalid query: scala-gwt

Unsupported query:scala-gwt 


Please provide any additional information below.
I am probably doing something wrong.  But the feedback I got gave me no help in dealing with it.  What is a valid query?  Where can I learn about them?  Maybe a link to the support for query syntax. This is an interesting tool but I got stuck a little fast for my liking.  Sorry, don't mean to come off critical, just wanted to give a suggestion.

Did you try reading the Documentation? Its under the Documentation tab. Right below it is "Searching".

That said, newer versions match "scala-gwt" to projects containing the string "scala-gwt" in their name. So I'm marking this as fixed.

The search needs to be overhauled. By the way, how is this fixed if the issue is that search is not intuitive without documentation? Search should not be something that requires documentation to use for at least simple use cases. 

So many times I just wish I could do a google search like: some text in commit message, patch, or author name site:review.anywhere.com
