I have currently started to implement this by searching for blobs in the root 
tree with matching file names. This can be extended by searching the child 
trees to a certain depth to find the file.  This is in the patch attached 
below. 

So yesterday, I was looking to further implement this patch on the internet and 
was able to read the documentation of git python to use the git ls-files 
command and found this 
http://gitpython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference.html#git.cmd.Git

But i'm not sure if this is the way to go about it since this will be limited 
to git repositories and I guess the previous method will be useful for all SCM 
repos.

Also, I'm thinking that we should just expose this function via REST and use JS 
to display the search results instead on demand.

Would like to know suggestions on how to further go about this.
