- The commit count was capped at 10, due to
`Gitlab::Git::Repository#log` enforcing a limit, with the default set
to 10.
- Reimplement a small portion of this `log` function to get just the
data we need.
- Don't use `TableReferences` - using `.arel_table` is shorter!
- Move some database-related code to `Gitlab::Database`
- Remove the `MergeRequest#issues_closed` and
`Issue#closed_by_merge_requests` associations. They were either
shadowing or were too similar to existing methods. They are not being
used anywhere, so it's better to remove them to reduce confusion.
- Use Rails 3-style validations
- Index for `MergeRequest::Metrics#first_deployed_to_production_at`
- Only include `CycleAnalyticsHelpers::TestGeneration` for specs that
need it.
- Other minor refactorings.
