title: Finding files on GitHub
intro: 'You can search for a file in a repository using the file finder. To search for a file in multiple repositories on {% data variables.product.product_name %}, use the [`filename` code search qualifier](/articles/searching-code#search-by-filename).'
redirect_from:
- /articles/finding-files-on-github
versions:
free-pro-team: '*'
enterprise-server: '*'
---
{% tip %}
**Tips:**
- File finder results exclude some directories like `build`, `log`, `tmp`, and `vendor`. To search for files within these directories, use the [`filename` code search qualifier](/articles/searching-code#search-by-filename).
- You can also open the file finder by pressing `t` on your keyboard. For more information, see "[Keyboard shortcuts](/articles/keyboard-shortcuts)."
{% endtip %}
{% data reusables.repositories.navigate-to-repo %}
{% if currentVersion != "free-pro-team@latest" and currentVersion ver_lt "enterprise-server@2.22" %}
