Hide/collapse bots in commits

See original GitHub issue

With the rise in popularity of dependency management bots and other non-human commit-generating entities, commit logs can get very noisy relative to the typical experience in the pre “rise of the bots” era.

It would be nice to have an option for filtering these types of commits out of the list, particularly in the /compare/X...Y UI.

Whitelist sounds good too.

Could these commits be faded out like we do we merge commits? Safer.

Sounds like all our discussion was for nothing 😅 Bots have /marketplace/ or /apps in the URL, which makes it very easy to filter out. Example of noisy commit list: https://github.com/OctoLinker/OctoLinker/commits/master 🤢
