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.)

Best,

JJB

    Yes! I actually do these type of searches all the time myself (and am old
    enough to bemoan the disappearance the Google code search tool that preceded
    it ages ago).
