- Split `GetDiff` into two functions, `GetDiffSimple` and `GetDiffFull`. The former will do the bare minimum and really only get a Git diff while the latter does some extra stuff that's relevant for the frontend to show extra relevant.
- Use `GetDiffSimple` for API related calls, as they do not benefit nor are returning the extra information that `GetDiffFull` provides, this should show a measurable performance increase for API calls that returns commits and `/repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/{index}/files`.
- `GetDiffSimple` contains extra code comments about its interesting way to determine the before commit.
- Add unit tests to demonstrates that the logic for determining the before commit didn't change and the function still yields correct information.
