When clicking on a search result with an url a redundant page navigation is made in javascript code.
The navigation triggered by javascript is then cancelled (overruled) by the regular navigation behavior of the a-tag.
Note that this only happens when clicking the search result. When pressing enter while the search result is in focus everything works as expected.
The browser should navigate to the chosen github project. No redundant navigations should be made (no cancelled reuqests in network tab).
One redundant navigation request is made.

I confirm that it's a bug. The onSelect opens the URL via window.open or window.location.href if the href attribute is set for search item. Since it's an anchor tag, it has already default behavior to open the link which causes the simultaneous requests by both onSelect callback and click events. The default events should be prevented if the link is opening by windows.location.href or window.open.
