help Sourcegraph FAQ
What is Sourcegraph used for?
Sourcegraph is used for code search, code navigation, and understanding large codebases across many repositories. It is especially useful in organizations with monorepos or many GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket repositories.
What is Cody in Sourcegraph?
Cody is Sourcegraph's AI coding assistant. It uses code context from Sourcegraph so it can answer questions or generate changes with awareness of a company's repositories.
How is Sourcegraph different from GitHub code search?
GitHub code search is strongest inside GitHub-hosted repositories, while Sourcegraph is designed to index code across multiple hosts and large organizations. Sourcegraph also emphasizes cross-repository navigation and enterprise code intelligence.
Why do companies use Sourcegraph for monorepos?
Large monorepos can be hard to search and understand with basic text search alone. Sourcegraph indexes repositories and supports symbol-aware navigation, which helps developers trace definitions and references across a large codebase.
