Show position of commit in the list when browsing a Merge Request commit by commit

Release notes

Problem to solve

When navigating a MR commit by commit, it's not clear on which position you are in the list of commits.

Intended users

• Sasha (Software Developer)
• Devon (DevOps Engineer)
• Rachel (Release Manager)
• Alex (Security Operations Engineer)
• Simone (Software Engineer in Test)
• Dana (Data Analyst)
• Eddie (Content Editor)
• (...anyone who does code reviews)

User experience goal

Provide guidance to user on which commit they are in. Eg: 2 of 8

Proposal

Further details

I don't think we have this information in the Vue app at the moment. We have only a reference to previous and next commit. If we get this info from the Backend we can simply display it. Or if a list of commit ids is provided, we can infer this on the FE.

Documentation

Availability & Testing

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?
