I like how Github shows it as infinity commits

  Yeah, is that a bug? lol

    Sounds like a overflow bug prevention mechanism. There are an infinite number of infinities, so surely one of them is the maximum possible commits in github.

      Git runs into problems with more than 2¹⁶⁰ commits in a repository.

  What's up with that? There only seem to be 4, on HEAD?
  • caslon 4y ago
    Check the other branches.
    • kevincox 4y ago
      I always expected that the commit count was for that branch. I guess it is global?
    • deathanatos 4y ago
      I saw the other branches when I made the comment. The commit count is — usually — the commit count from the currently selected ref. E.g., on a sample repo, "master" displays as 29,474 commits. "master^" displays as 29,473.
