What
The internal check that looks for denied or credential-named commits used to compare a single base..target commit range. It now runs git rev-list against a target commit plus a --not clause listing multiple excluded refs.
Why
This lets the scan exclude several branches or refs at once rather than being limited to one base, making the check more accurate in repositories with more than one relevant baseline.
