I don't know if it's the best place to comment this, but it would be nice if we could find the commit that introduced the largest change, in terms of size or number of lines.

This would be useful for people who are asking "what's the largest commmit?" thinking about the introduced changes (like what we see in GitLab's interface) instead of the size of the commit object, which generally is proportional to the message size + the number of parents.
