+Example query: [`path:"_pkgdown.yml" AND (org:tidyverse OR org:r-lib)`](https://github.com/search?q=path%3A%22_pkgdown.yml%22+AND+%28org%3Atidyverse+OR+org%3Ar-lib%29&type=code)
 
 For any given `_pkgdown.yml` file on GitHub, remember that its History and Blame can be helpful for seeing how another package's config has evolved over time.
