I was working in a file located in a workspace backed by directory "BT" file/BT/bundles/org.eclipse.orion.client.git/web/orion/git/gitCommands.js I did open resource on "GitCredentialsDialog" and it took me to file/Dk/bundles/org.eclipse.orion.client.git/web/orion/git/widgets/GitCredentialsDialog.js I didn't notice this at first, so I did a bunch of edits and then wondered why it didn't seem to be working when I tried the code. This is probably a symptom of the old "write access on other workspaces" problem but I guess I'm wondering why the search engine knows about these other workspaces. Does it search all writable workspaces?

Does it search all writable workspaces? Yes. Well actually search engine doesn't know anything about workspaces... it just searches all the files you have permission to access. I wrote a script to clean these permissions up but I was apprehensive of running it on a live server. I think I should just run this (backup data beforehand), and try to fix the past mistakes.

I have wasted lots of little bits of time editing the wrong file, etc., and then thinking something else was wrong. It makes me stop trusting search (and it's not search's fault!)
This cleanup was done by wiping the server workspace.
