Research direction

Start with the Azure DevOps Git commits endpoint and compare the repository's 7.1 API specification with the linked Microsoft documentation, focusing on searchCriteria.$top. Reproduce the requests using values 10 and 1000, then verify that the generated API behavior returns the requested number of commits.
