Description

Description

I find it extremely tedious that the Commits page on GitHub only has the page navigation at the bottom. I think it makes sense to have it duplicated on top as well, because sometimes you just want to straight away jump somewhere, why should you be required to scroll down all the way first?

For that matter, it is downright insane that we only get prev-next here, instead of real pagination with page links... But I guess that's a separate issue altogether.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Find the existing navigation component for the Commits page in the codebase. It likely lives in a file related to commits pagination. Duplicate it at the top of the page, ensuring it is styled consistently and respects the same logic. No backend changes are needed.
