Check if commit is inside branch #24660
-
|
Hello I’m trying to find a better way to check if a commit is inside a branch the only solution I found is to use compare method from api v3 https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/commits/#compare-two-commits the only problem is that it will return all the diffs, which I don’t want, it could lead to performance issue for large repos. I tried to find a way with graphql too but without success. Have you an idea to how return just the ahead/behind stats or just true/false status like done with ? kind regards |

FWIW, I came here looking for the same answer. Is the only available option via CLI? |

Hello of course, it is php code The real question for me was to know if the master was merged in the branch $graphql['featureBranchContainsMasterLastCommit'] = ($compare['behind_by'] === 0 && $compare['status'] !== 'diverged');You just need a GITHUB_TOKEN constant which must remains secret of course /**
* @param string $method
* @param string $uri
* @param array $headers
* @param array $data
* @return mixed
* @throws \GuzzleHttp\Exception\GuzzleException
*/
function guzzleGithubApi(string $method, string $uri, array $headers = [], array $data = []) {
if (!isset($headers['Authorization'])) {
$headers['Authorization'] = 'token ' . GITHUB_TOKEN;
}
$client = new GuzzleHttp\Client(['headers' => $headers]);
$response = $client->request(
$method,
$uri,
$data
);
$responseJson = json_decode($response->getBody(), true);
if (isset($responseJson['errors'])) {
error_log("api error $uri ".$response->getStatusCode() . " message " . $response->getBody());
}
return $responseJson;
}
try {
$compare = guzzleGithubApi(
'GET',
"https://api.github.com/repos/$owner/$repo/compare/$defaultRepoMasterBranch...$featureBranchOid",
['Accept' => 'application/vnd.github.v3+json, application/vnd.github.sailor-v-preview+json']
);
// enrich graphql response
$graphql['featureBranchCompareMaster'] = $compare;
$graphql['featureBranchContainsMasterLastCommit'] = ($compare['behind_by'] === 0 && $compare['status'] !== 'diverged');
} catch (\GuzzleHttp\Exception\GuzzleException $ex) {
error_log("{$ex->getMessage()} - {$ex->getTraceAsString()}");
// ignore

In Git, a branch is a pointer to one specific commit, while a commit is a snapshot of your repository at a specific point in time. Your branch pointer moves along with each new commit you make. |

graphql is not good for recursive
both APIs are complementay
