After D12687, this could use a refresh.
The UI also doesn't actually explain what symbols are anywhere.

Wontfix | epriestley | T8235 Update symbol documentation |
A small thing I've noticed yesterday: The docs say
.... import_repository_symbols.php rREPO < symbols_data
but it should say
... import_repository_symbols.php REPO < symbols_data
(No leading r).
In prepration for T4245, we should probably be moving this stuff to accept IDs, Rxx, rCALLSIGN or CALLSIGN, and getting the abstractions for that in place if they aren't already.
I'm increasingly thinking that T4245 may also make "clone/checkout as" globally unique and allow it to serve as an alternate identifier, too, although that's a little messy.
And this should move to bin/repository import-symbols or similar, per discussion elsewhere.
So ideally we'd come out of it with these all working, via some shared mechanism on the core query infrastructure:
bin/repository import-symbols rCALLSIGN bin/repository import-symbols CALLSIGN bin/repository import-symbols R123 bin/repository import-symbols reponame
...and maybe just 123 too, although that's probably the least useful one.
