Seems like did a merge that somehow broke GitHub, and it's back to normal now.

(Don't forget, mozilla-central has more commits than GitHub can even count (they call it "10k+"), hundreds of forks, a few dozen commits a day, etc.. so it's atypical)

That's pretty standard for a private repo.

Only if you add a few zeroes. From the bug thread:

    This sounds like someone pushed the old shas into the new
    shas in some repo, which would be a ~1.5million commit push.
