For code searches, consider using the {searcher} package: https://github.com/r-assist/searcher
In particular, the search_github() function handles the query formatting. As an example, try: searcher::search_github("clusterEvalQ ") This opens a web browser with: https://github.com/search?q=clusterEvalQ%20%20language:r%20type:issue&type=Issues Lastly, there is an R-specific Google search engine available at: https://rseek.org/ It's not quite google code search, but it's useful! Plus, there is a {searcher} function for that as well, e.g. searcher::search_rseek(). (Thanks Alex Rossell Hayes for that contribution.)
