* bits are repositories which had at least 100 commits in the last year.
BSI range queries support the following operators:
Operator | Name | Value
----------|-------------------------------|--------------------
`>` | greater-than, GT | integer
`<` | less-than, LT | integer
`<=` | less-than-or-equal-to, LTE | integer
`>=` | greater-than-or-equal-to, GTE | integer
`==` | equal-to, EQ | integer
`!=` | not-equal-to, NEQ | integer or `null`
`><` | between, BETWEEN | [integer, integer]
The `BETWEEN` query specifies an interval with both bounds, using `><` operator, and a two-element list containing the lower and upper bounds of the interval:
```
Range(frame="stats", commitactivity >< [100, 200])
```
This is conceptually equivalent to the interval 100 <= commitactivity <= 200, but this chained comparison syntax is not currently supported. `BETWEEN` query syntax is restricted to greater-than-or-equal-to and less-than-or-equal-to, but any valid interval on the integers can be represented this way.
