This was the first Google result my search, can you update the code to use defaultBranchRef instead of ref(…)?

If you do, please at least comment with the original version (or maybe make another file in the gist?) because this query is also useful to figure out how to get history from a certain point (be that tag or commit oid).

I let this here maybe it helps somebody else to get commits for defaultBranchRef:

  {
    repository(owner: "sulu", name: "sulu") {
      defaultBranchRef {
        name
        target {
          ... on Commit {
            history {
              totalCount
            }
          }
        }
      }
      stargazers {
        totalCount
      }
      releases {
        totalCount
      }
    }
  }
