This is a feature request from the Wikimania CirrusSearch talk. You have links in the index, could these links be exposed in the search syntax? This would let me search for articles that contain a link to a specific article.
Change 153305 had a related patch set uploaded by Manybubbles: Add linksto: syntax to detect outoing links https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/153305
In response to the commit message: case sensitive links are fine with me, this will work with my requirements.
I'm glad it'll work for you! I'm not sure when it'll get deployed because Chad is on vacation this week. He'll have a large backlog of code reviews to get through when he gets back. After that it'll go through the normal release process and end up on wikipedias one week after the Thursday after it is merged (release train). If you need it super badly I could probably get it in as a backport at some point. If you can wait until it goes out on the release train it'll save me some time.
No rush, thanks.
