Follow-up from "Draft: Replace zoekt feature_flags with application_settings"
The following discussion from !148378 (merged) should be addressed:
-
@ashrafkhamis started a discussion: @rkumar555 Can we update this in a follow-up? I see the section and checkbox are now called
Enable Zoekt code search
. I think we should go withEnable exact code search
in the UI and update the docs. -
In user preferences, update the Enable Zoekt code search
section toExact code search
. -
In user preferences, update the Enable Zoekt code search
checkbox toEnable exact code search
. -
Update the UI text to mention that when the checkbox is not selected, Elasticsearch is used instead. -
Move Exact code search from https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/profile/ to https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/profile/preferences.html where it belongs. -
Update the checkbox name and the steps to enable the feature in the docs. -
Link from https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/search/exact_code_search.html to the user preferences section to increase its discoverability. -
If you must enable exact code search in user preferences to use the feature, we should add that as a prerequisite to the exact code search docs (see Extension marketplace as an example).
