Prevent fetching commits for files that are not on the current page
What does this MR do?
This prevents (batch) fetching commits for files that are not on the page that the user is currently viewing.
This is part of a bigger effort to improve the performance of the repository file tree if there are many files in a folder.
More performance improvements to this page to follow.
