Bitbucket REST api compare/changes does not work with files more than 1000

Gourav Puri

I have a branch where lots of commit have happened and now the difference between branches is more than 1000 files (1229 to be precise) 

this Bitbucket api 

https://developer.atlassian.com/server/bitbucket/rest/v819/api-group-repository/#api-api-latest-projects-projectkey-repos-repositoryslug-compare-changes-get

has a limitation on retrieving file changes more then 1000 files

When requesting files after 1000 files by setting start=1000&limit=100 
We get below response
