Get a tree
GET {{baseUrl}}/repos/:owner/:repo/git/trees/:tree_sha?recursive=<string>
Returns a single tree using the SHA1 value for that tree.
If truncated
is true
in the response then the number of items in the tree
array exceeded our maximum limit. If you need to fetch more items, use the non-recursive method of fetching trees, and fetch one sub-tree at a time.
Request Params
Key | Datatype | Required | Description |

For example, setting recursive to any of the following will enable returning objects or subtrees: 0 , 1 , "true" , and "false" . Omit this parameter to prevent recursively returning objects or subtrees. |
