Observation¶

We have these warnings in our logs, very rarely though:

This apparently comes from

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: needles_diff_stat is not slowing down the investigation tab
• AC2: We are not alerted about those git warnings

Suggestions¶

• See #110677 for a related fix for git_log_diff and comments about what to do about needles_diff_stat
• Use output from git rev-list --count to decide if the needle diff stat should be rendered at all
• Use a configurable limit (compare to git log limit of 200)

Out of scope¶

• Point to a remote diff, e.g. on github
