When searching for less than two characters, no results are returned

hello，

I use gitlab to search for the item I want, when there are less than two characters, no results are returned, even though the item containing these two characters exists.

Use “pr” to search

User “pri” search

Thanks!

Hi @kychen

AFAIK that is intentional as such generic searches would return too many results which could lead to other issues like timeouts/memory/…
