'How can I do "find and replace" inside the git repository?
In my GitHub repository, I have many files and I have to change one of the words to another one. The problem is that, as the occurrences of that word is more than 200, I cannot change it one by one manually. Is there any way to facilitate this?

In edit mode, press Ctrl + Shift + F, the editor will ask you: Replace, type the search word, then press Enter, the editor will ask you: With:, type the replacement word and press Enter. Then follow the menu.

The GitHub code editor appears to only allow for find and replace on one file at a time.
You would likely benefit greatly from the use of a code editor like Visual Studio Code which supports find and replace across all files in a project.
