The `GetAllCommits` endpoint can be pretty slow, especially in repos
with a lot of commits. The issue is that it spends a lot of time
calculating information that may not be useful/needed by the user.
The `stat` param was previously added in #21337 to address this, by
allowing the user to disable the calculating stats for each commit. But
this has two issues:
1. The name `stat` is rather misleading, because disabling `stat`
disables the Stat **and** Files. This should be separated out into two
different params, because getting a list of affected files is much less
expensive than calculating the stats
2. There's still other costly information provided that the user may not
need, such as `Verification`
This PR, adds two parameters to the endpoint, `files` and `verification`
to allow the user to explicitly disable this information when listing
commits. The default behavior is true.
Due to #24409 , we can now specify '--not' when getting all commits from
a repo to exclude commits from a different branch.
When I wrote that PR, I forgot to also update the code that counts the
number of commits in the repo. So now, if the --not option is used, it
may return too many commits, which can indicate that another page of
data is available when it is not.
This PR passes --not to the commands that count the number of commits in
a repo
For my specific use case, I'd like to get all commits that are on one
branch but NOT on the other branch.
For instance, I'd like to get all the commits on `Branch1` that are not
also on `master` (I.e. all commits that were made after `Branch1` was
created).
This PR adds a `not` query param that gets passed down to the `git log`
command to allow the user to exclude items from `GetAllCommits`.
