I often need to dive into large unfamiliar codebases (mainly C and Go). After following 6-7 "go to definition" jumps, I usually get lost in the call chain.
I’m curious how others handle this. When you get dropped into a new project, how do you usually find your way around? Do you rely on IDE tools (jump to def, grep, cscope, custom scripts) or mostly manual reading?
Interested to hear different approaches.
