Description

When you have lots of commits to push (let's say 100k), GitHub (and maybe many other services) rejects the push.

I'd like for the client to be aware of the number of commits and try to push them let's say 100 at once, that way the push will get accepted by GitHub

Research direction

Start by tracing the client's existing push implementation and how it determines the commits sent to GitHub. Confirm the service's commit limit and define how batches should be handled, then verify that a push containing roughly 100,000 commits succeeds through multiple batches.
