SourceForge, one of the largest open source code hosts on the web, has partnered with the code search engine Krugle to provide improved search features for SourceForge.net. The deal will let Krugle index and return results for the roughly 145,000 open source projects hosted at SourceForge.net.

As anyone who's used SourceForge's existing search functionality can tell you, this is a tremendous boon for developers. Krugle's search will be integrated into the SourceForge site and make it possible to search within the project code, something not previously possible on SourceForge.

Krugle will also the data to its main search page.

We've looked at Krugle a couple of times in the past and came away very impressed. Krugle already powers code searches on Yahoo's Developer Network and by adding SourceForge results, Krugle is well on its way to becoming the Google of code searching.
