Commits API

DETAILS: Tier: Free, Premium, Ultimate Offering: GitLab.com, GitLab Self-Managed, GitLab Dedicated

This API operates on repository commits. Read more about GitLab-specific information for commits.

Responses

Some date fields in responses from this API are, or can appear to be, duplicated information:

  • The created_at field exists solely for consistency with other GitLab APIs. It is always identical to the committed_date field.
  • The committed_date and authored_date fields are generated from different sources, and may not be identical.

Get references a commit is pushed to

Get all references (from branches or tags) a commit is pushed to. The pagination parameters page and per_page can be used to restrict the list of references.

curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```0

Parameters:

| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
| `id`      | integer/string | yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](rest/index.md#namespaced-paths) |
| `sha` | string | yes | The commit hash  |
| `type` | string | no | The scope of commits. Possible values `branch`, `tag`, `all`. Default is `all`.  |

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```1

Example response:

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```2

## Get the sequence of a commit

> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/438151) in GitLab 16.9.

Get the sequence number of a commit in a project by following the parent links from the given commit.

This API provides essentially the same features as the `git rev-list --count` command for a given commit SHA.

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```3

Parameters:

| Attribute      | Type           | Required | Description |
| -------------- | -------------- | -------- | ----------- |
| `id`           | integer/string | yes      | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](rest/index.md#namespaced-paths). |
| `sha`          | string         | yes      | The commit hash. |
| `first_parent` | boolean        | no       | Follow only the first parent commit upon seeing a merge commit. |

Example request:

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```4

Example response:

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```5

## Cherry-pick a commit

Cherry-picks a commit to a given branch.

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```6

Parameters:

| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
| --------- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
| `id`      | integer/string | yes | The ID or [URL-encoded path of the project](rest/index.md#namespaced-paths) |
| `sha` | string | yes | The commit hash  |
| `branch` | string | yes | The name of the branch  |
| `dry_run` | boolean | no | Does not commit any changes. Default is false. |
| `message` | string | no | A custom commit message to use for the new commit. |

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```7

Example response:

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```8

In the event of a failed cherry-pick, the response provides context about
why:

```shell
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" \
  --url "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects/5/repository/commits"
```9

In this case, the cherry-pick failed because the changeset was empty and likely
indicates that the commit already exists in the target branch. The other
possible error code is `conflict`, which indicates that there was a merge
conflict.

When `dry_run` is enabled, the server attempts to apply the cherry-pick _but
not actually commit any resulting changes_. If the cherry-pick applies cleanly,
the API responds with `200 OK`:

    "extended_trailers": { "Cc": ["John Doe <johndoe@gitlab.com>", "Jane Doe <janedoe@gitlab.com>"] }
  }
]
```0

In the event of a failure, an error displays that is identical to a failure without
dry run.

In this case, the revert failed because the attempted revert generated a merge
conflict. The other possible error code is `empty`, which indicates that the
changeset was empty, likely due to the change having already been reverted.

When `dry_run` is enabled, the server attempts to apply the revert _but not
actually commit any resulting changes_. If the revert applies cleanly, the API
responds with `200 OK`:

## Post comment to commit

Adds a comment to a commit.

To post a comment in a particular line of a particular file, you must specify
the full commit SHA, the `path`, the `line`, and `line_type` should be `new`.

The comment is added at the end of the last commit if at least one of the
cases below is valid:

- the `sha` is instead a branch or a tag and the `line` or `path` are invalid
- the `line` number is invalid (does not exist)
- the `path` is invalid (does not exist)

In any of the above cases, the response of `line`, `line_type` and `path` is
set to `null`.

For other approaches to commenting on a merge request, see

and [Create a new thread in the merge request diff](discussions.md#create-a-new-thread-in-the-merge-request-diff)
