commits = project.commits.list(ref_name='my_branch')
commits = project.commits.list(since='2016-01-01T00:00:00Z')
List all commits for a project (see Pagination) on all branches:
commits = project.commits.list(get_all=True, all=True)
Create a commit:
# See https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/api/commits.html#create-a-commit-with-multiple-files-and-actions
# for actions detail
data = {
'branch': 'main',
'commit_message': 'blah blah blah',
'actions': [
'action': 'create',
'file_path': 'README.rst',
'content': open('path/to/file.rst').read(),
# Binary files need to be base64 encoded
'action': 'create',
'file_path': 'logo.png',
'content': base64.b64encode(open('logo.png', mode='r+b').read()).decode(),
'encoding': 'base64',
commit = project.commits.create(data)
Get a commit detail:
commit = project.commits.get('e3d5a71b')
Get the diff for a commit:
diff = commit.diff()
Cherry-pick a commit into another branch:
commit.cherry_pick(branch='target_branch')
Revert a commit on a given branch:
commit.revert(branch='target_branch')
Get the references the commit has been pushed to (branches and tags):
commit.refs() # all references
commit.refs('tag') # only tags
commit.refs('branch') # only branches
Get the signature of the commit (if the commit was signed, e.g. with GPG or x509):
commit.signature()
List the merge requests related to a commit:
