refs call of commit causes wrong warning about python-gitlab HOT 5 OPEN

Using tags = commit.refs("tag", get_all=True) works fine.

The documentation is misleading as well due to the fact, that only the first 20 matches are returned.

@cweber-dbs this documentation refers to all types of references (both tags and branches), not necessarily all pages returned by the API, which is covered by the pagination docs. But this is also why we have this runtime warning as it's often confusing in other endpoints.

@JohnVillalovos I guess we could tweak this a bit to also supply the calling method instead if it calls http_list internally, but sometimes I would almost prefer the interface on this to use a manager like we do with most endpoints, so people would call commit.refs.list(). WDYT?

Not an answer to this. Did the warning not indicate the file and line number in the user code that caused the warning? I thought it was supposed to do that.

Nope, only the reference to utils.py line 199 is included:

/opt/homebrew/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gitlab/utils.py:199: UserWarning: Calling a `list()` method without specifying `get_all=True` or `iterator=True` will return a maximum of 20 items. Your query returned 20 of 246 items. See https://python-gitlab.readthedocs.io/en/v4.4.0/api-usage.html#pagination for more details. If this was done intentionally, then this warning can be supressed by adding the argument `get_all=False` to the `list()` call.

Not sure if you are able to do it or not, but would be interesting if you could apply the small change to utils.py from #2802

Hopefully the error message would then include the path to the calling code. Though I am surprised and confused that there is no filename at all at the end. I wonder if that could be because it is running on MacOS, which I'm guessing from seeing "homebrew"
