Description
### 📋 Description
New badge for GitHub:
- It should display the amount of total commits of the 200 most starred repos of the given user / org.
- Required parameter: a GitHub user or org
- Optional parameter: affiliations (OWNER,COLLABORATOR,ORGANIZATION_MEMBER)
- Similar to the [GitHub User's stars](https://shields.io/badges/git-hub-users-stars) badge
### 🔗 Data
Maybe [REST API endpoints for commits](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/commits/commits?apiVersion=2022-11-28#list-commits) can be used to count the commits of a repo.
### 🎤 Motivation
It could be used in profile README files to display stats of a user.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by comparing the existing GitHub User's stars badge with the REST API's list-commits endpoint. Trace how the badge accepts a GitHub user or organization and optional affiliations, then define completion as displaying the total commits across that user's 200 most-starred repositories.
