The query param extended_sha1 on the Repository Graph is misleading when the user is working with a SHA256 repository.

Where in the application are you seeing this issue?

URL of the page:

• https://gitlab.com/john.mcdonnell/sha256repo/-/network/main?extended_sha1=bafc1bdbd1c50915f6ac976c0749aa6f2b800584543ed670657e2dce4c35dc60

How did you expect the application to behave?

URL Query Param should be either agnostic to SHA format, or be consistent with repository object format of the underlying project.

e.g.

• /-/network/main?extended_sha256=bafc1bdbd1c50915f6ac976c0749aa6f2b800584543ed670657e2dce4c35dc60
• /-/network/main?extended_sha=bafc1bdbd1c50915f6ac976c0749aa6f2b800584543ed670657e2dce4c35dc60

How did the application behave?

Graph works as expected, but query params are misleading
