[GitHub] add latest release of a branch badge #9661

Hi. Thanks for opening a PR. A badge should be quick to render. In most contexts where our badges are displayed there's a hard limit of 4 seconds on a request. In general we try usually avoid accepting badges that require more than one network call to render for this reason. This means badges that require iterating over multiple pages of API response are impractical. They end up being too slow to render in a lot of cases. I had a look to see if it would be possible to obtain this information in a single GraphQL query but it seems this is not exposed by the GraphQL API. https://docs.github.com/en/graphql/reference/objects#release If we can't find a more efficient way to query it, I'm inclined to decline this one. Out of interest, and also for testing purposes, do you have an example of a repo that publishes releases against different branches? It is not something I have come across before and I don't think this corresponds to an open feature request. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
If we end up coming back to this, none of the tests in this file are actually testing the service class that has been added in this PR, but lets not get bogged down in that for the moment
