   Thinking of pagination, it's a mess right now, it is not supported on all APIs. Maybe we could at the same time rethink how it's done?

   On other endpoints, NGitLab enables keyset pagination transparently if the parameters are ok. For instance,

   NGitLab/NGitLab/Impl/ProjectClient.cs

   Line 78 in 5d4b6da

   url = Utils.AddOrderBy(url, query.OrderBy, supportKeysetPagination: SupportKeysetPagination(query));

   . I think we can do the same for this endpoint.

   My problem was on the project commits API, there were no way to specify it. Hopefully it was already set to max page size.

   Just an FYI, when I created this issue, it was because I needed to get specific files knowing their extensions in GitLab.
   I discovered that you can use the search endpoint instead, which has a less known syntax.

   Example, I could just search for the file extensions I needed by calling

   /api/v4/projects/{id}/search?scope=blobs&search=extension:csproj

   you can also search by filename, path, etc https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/search/advanced_search.html#code-search

   I still cannot get over it, it made my life easier on so many levels 😆
