Thanks for correcting this.

This makes logic much simpler.  Nice change.

Here I have realized the source of this bug.  Some time ago
git-rev-list acquired '--skip=<number>' option to have _git_ skip
commits and not _gitweb_, which improves performance a bit.  It was
required to implement huge performance improvement, namely getting
details for all commits from a single command, otherwise the
performance improvement of calling one git command instead of
$page_size git commands would be much reduced by generating large
amount of data which would be skipped (wound't be used by gitweb).

Unfortunately this change wasn't reviewed carefully enough; old logic
to decide whether to add 'next' link compared (tried to compare)
number of commits receivied with number of commits requested (via
'--max-count=<number>' option).  I guess that having format_paging_nav
decide whether to add "next" link was a bad idea...

I would agree with Junio here that @commitlist > 100 would be more
readable.

Logic goes as the following: we request ($page_size+1) revisions to
know if there are additional revisions, skipping ($page_size * $page)
revisions; gitweb adds 'next' link if it got more than $page_size
revisions.

What about git_history()... oh, I see, it generates paging itself, and
soes not use format_paging_nav() subroutine.  But I think it does not
exhibit mentioned (and corrected) error.  BTW. I *guess* that with
href(-replay=>1, ...) gitweb could use format_paging_nav() also for
other pages...
