Abdur-Rahman Mansoor 5c52eddd34 style: fix typos and use american spelling convention in some areas (#647)
You'll notice that asides from some typo fixes, "organisation" has been changed to "organization" to ensure a more consistent style guide, adapted to Codeberg's style: https://docs.codeberg.org/improving-documentation/style-guide/

Also changed "orgs" to "organizations" as it's more professional and easier to understand.

Code Search CC-BY-SA-4.0

Forgejo supports code search through an indexer and git-grep as a fallback when REPO_INDEXER_ENABLED is disabled.

Basic (git-grep)

If REPO_INDEXER_ENABLED is set to false, the code search function will be limited to a single repository and will use git-grep.

Currently, only fixed strings are supported and any case differences are ignored. The search results will include the matched line, along with a single line before and after the match.

Since, the searches are performed in the fly they may be performed on any valid branch or tag.

Indexer

For advanced search queries and searching across an entire organization or instance, REPO_INDEXER_ENABLED: true enables code search via bleve/elasticsearch.

However, search results are limited to the HEAD of the repository.
