How do you search for a filename in GitHub?

I find it really hard to search in Github.  Is there a way to search for an actual filename or subset of a filename versus getting tons of results that do not have the search term in the filename?

Hi!

Yes, you can use “Advanced search” terms. If you look for some specific file name try:

in:path FILE-NAME

Then on second line press on “Code” section.
