Description
Problem to solve
Currently, during the onboarding flow, fetching all repositories can take a while which can be misleading for some users and affect user experience.
Proposal
We could introduce an initial loading state when the request takes longer than X amount of time, paginate the list of repositories, and load more list entries with infinite scrolling.

TBD (To be discussed)

Research direction
The issue describes slow repository fetching during the onboarding flow, with possible loading feedback, pagination, and infinite scrolling. No files, tests, or entry points are named; first identify the onboarding repository-fetching flow and its existing tests. Done would require an agreed approach and verified repository loading behavior, but the proposal is marked TBD.
