Options

​

Response

• sha
• parentShas — parent commit SHAs in Git parent order; empty for root commits. Python: parent_shas; Go: ParentSHAs.
• message
• authorName, authorEmail
• committerName, committerEmail
• date (parsed Date in TypeScript, datetime in Python, time.Time in Go)
• rawDate (RFC 3339 string as returned by the server)
• signature — the armored signature taken from the commit’s signature header. Omitted for unsigned commits.
• payload — the exact bytes the signature is computed over. Omitted for unsigned commits.

const { commit } = await repo.getCommit({ sha: 'abc123def456' });

if (commit.signature) {
  // `commit.payload` is the data the signature was computed over.
  verifyOpenPGP(commit.payload, commit.signature);
}

Notes

• This endpoint does not compute or return the commit diff. Use getCommitDiff() when you need file changes as well.
• For listing many commits at once, prefer listCommits() — the per-commit shape is identical except that signature and payload are only returned by getCommit().
• signature and payload let clients verify commit signatures independently. The server enforces signatures at push time through the verify-sig branch-protection policy.
