Re:What if GitHub had vector search?

This is interesting — has anyone tried something like this with Elasticsearch or maybe Milvus/Meilisearch/Typesense? I know those are popular for vector searches, but I haven't seen anything specific for improving GitHub searches like this.
I'm curious how this compares performance-wise, especially when it comes to large repositories with tons of issues and PRs. Also, how scalable is it? I feel like semantic search has a lot of potential here, but does anyone know if GitHub itself has plans to integrate something similar?
