gibo: Search for boilerplates containing a given string.
$ gibo search ${string}
try on your machine

The command "gibo search ${string}" is a command-line instruction that uses the "gibo" command to search for a specific string within a collection of GitHub .gitignore templates.

Here's a breakdown of the different components:

  • "gibo" is the name of the command-line tool used for managing .gitignore files.
  • "search" is a subcommand provided by "gibo" that allows searching for a specific string within the available templates.
  • "${string}" represents the placeholder for the actual string you want to search for. You need to replace "${string}" with the desired term you're looking for.

When you execute this command, it will search through the available .gitignore templates and display any matches that contain the provided string. This can be helpful in finding relevant templates to ignore specific file types or patterns when using Git for version control in a project.
