I think about half a year, assuming that's what they mean in this blog post: https://github.blog/changelog/2023-06-07-code-search-now-requires-login/

You're absolutely right. I was thinking about global, unscoped search. That sucks.

Searching code globally across GitHub.com already requires users to login, but starting today, we are extending that to include repository-scoped search as well.
