When looking for my library scikit-geometry by searching for skgeom in the global code search, I get quite a few hits from this repo: https://github.com/search?q=skgeom&type=code

Maybe something to raise with Github? Using a binary storage would probably also solve this problem, although that has other disadvantages (as one wouldn't be able to read the file in the UI).

Unless there is a magic way to skip the json in the search*, yeah, we should raise it with them.

This is a sufficiently magic incantation
