[BUG] Repository list fetches all repos in a single API call with no pagination, causing failures for users with more than 100 repositories

[anshul23102]

Problem

The GitHub REST API returns a maximum of 100 repositories per page. The current implementation calls /user/repos?per_page=100 once and uses only that first page. Users who have more than 100 repositories (common for active developers) see an incomplete repo list on the dashboard. Pull request metrics and streak calculations derived from that list are therefore also incomplete.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Authenticate as a user with more than 100 GitHub repositories
2. Open the dashboard and view the repository list
3. Count the displayed repos and compare with the GitHub profile count
4. Confirm repos beyond 100 are missing

Proposed Fix

Paginate through all pages until a response returns fewer than per_page items:

async function fetchAllRepos(token: string) {
  const repos = [];
  let page = 1;
  while (true) {
    const batch = await fetchGitHubRepos(token, page, 100);
    repos.push(...batch);
    if (batch.length < 100) break;
    page++;
  }
  return repos;
}

Cache the result to avoid N paginated requests on every page load.

Hi @Priyanshu-byte-coder , I'd like to work on this issue as part of GSSoC '26.

I reviewed the issue and understand that the current implementation only fetches the first page of repositories, leading to incomplete data for users with more than 100 repositories. I plan to implement proper pagination to fetch all repository pages, optimize the process with caching to minimize repeated API requests, and ensure repository-dependent metrics (such as PR statistics and streak calculations) are computed using the complete dataset.

Could you please assign this issue to me? Thank you!

Assigned to @BCA-krishna! You have 7 days to open a PR. No PR after 7 days = auto-unassigned so others can pick it up. Good luck!
