From 675c14aba660fcda7912519035a785e10ea61431 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: delvh Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2022 17:25:54 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Ignore error when retrieving changed PR review files (#21487) (#21524) When a PR reviewer reviewed a file on a commit that was later gc'ed, they would always get a `500` response from then on when loading the PR. This PR simply ignores that error and instead marks all files as unchanged. This approach was chosen as the only feasible option without diving into **a lot** of error handling.
