Hide/collapse bots in commits #1676

mike-north posted onGitHub

With the rise in popularity of dependency management bots and other non-human commit-generating entities, commit logs can get very noisy relative to the typical experience in the pre "rise of the bots" era.

It would be nice to have an option for filtering these types of commits out of the list, particularly in the /compare/X...Y UI.

Sounds like all our discussion was for nothing 😅 Bots have /marketplace/ or /apps in the URL, which makes it very easy to filter out. Example of noisy commit list: https://github.com/OctoLinker/OctoLinker/commits/master 🤢

Could these commits be faded out like we do we merge commits? Safer.

Something looks like this? Cool 😁

But I'd also like if we can merge serial bot commits into one and collapse them, make the page cleaner and easier to scroll through. Most of us merge several bot PRs at the same time so this happens a lot.
