pub const WALK_BUDGET: usize = 4096;Expand description
The most commits the walk from a tip reads before it gives up and hands nothing over: a branch far ahead, or a history
that never reaches the upstream, is not worth a long walk after every merge. Measured: the 439 most recent merges on main of
this repository brought in a median of 8 commits (90th percentile 50, 99th percentile 317, largest 6,542), and only 1 exceeded
this budget, so 438 of 439 are walked in full. Kept as the coordinator’s pick under the owner’s delegation, open to the owner’s veto (doc/planning/cli-git-shipped-limits-audit.md, “Sizes and ages of the service’s own housekeeping”).
