I *think* you only get false negatives for modified files. (It seams to search the files it selects as containing a match for the actual matches.) A cron job every night is the easy way to reindex for large source trees. [1] You can always kick of a manual refresh if you are looking for more recent changes. Works wonderfully for finding what ports (beyond what is installed and reported by rdependentof) depend upon the one I'm currently breaking. - Eric [1] http://code.google.com/p/codesearch/source/browse/cmd/cindex/cindex.go#38 -- Eric A.
