When doing the search, the number of results for code is not listed. Instead a '?' is shown. The submission removed the url parameters. Here's a full example:
https://github.com/search?q=boilingfrog&type=code
Perhaps the behavior depends on the user IP address.
$ curl 'https://github.com/search?q=boilingfrog&type=code'
<html><body>You are being <a href="https://github.com/login?return_to=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dboilingfrog%26type%3Dcode">redirected</a>.</body></html>

https://github.com/search?q=boilingfrog&ref=simplesearch nets results, but you are correct when we talk about code search.
Damn, this is moving backwards again... fitting search term. People should start to host their projects on alternative sites.
