Search
------

Projects that are configured as subprojects will share a search index with their
parent and sibling projects. This is currently the only way to share search
indexes between projects, we do not yet support sharing search indexes between
arbitrary projects.
Search on the parent project will include results from its subprojects.
If you search on the ``v1`` version of the parent project,
results from the ``v1`` version of its subprojects will be included,
or from the default version for subprojects that don't have a ``v1`` version.

This is currently the only way to share search results between projects,
we do not yet support sharing search results between sibling subprojects or arbitrary projects.
