[sweep-nightly]

Description

This pull request updates the create_pr.py script to enhance the way repository activity is determined by using the date of the latest commit rather than the total commit count. This change aims to provide a more accurate measure of recent activity in repositories.

Summary

• File Modified: sweepai/handlers/create_pr.py
• Adjusted the method of fetching recent commits to use the date of the latest commit instead of the total count of commits. This change is intended to handle errors related to empty repositories more gracefully.
• Removed unnecessary whitespace.
• Added a line to store the date of the latest commit in repo_activity dictionary, ensuring that the most recent activity date is accurately recorded and utilized.

Fixes #3902.
