VERSION

       version 0.01021

METHODS

   create
       •   Create a Reference

               POST /repos/:user/:repo/git/refs

           Parameters:

           •   user: mandatory string

           •   repo: mandatory string

           •   data: mandatory hashref, having following keys:

               •   ref: mandatory string of the name of the fully qualified reference (ie:
                   refs/heads/master). If it doesn't start with 'refs' and have at least two
                   slashes, it will be rejected.

               •   sha: mandatory string of the SHA1 value to set this reference to.

           Examples:

               my $r = Pithub::GitData::References->new;
               my $result = $r->create(
                   user => 'plu',
                   repo => 'Pithub',
                   data => {
                       ref => 'refs/heads/master',
                       sha => '827efc6d56897b048c772eb4087f854f46256132' .
                   }
               );

   get
       •   Get a Reference

               GET /repos/:user/:repo/git/refs/:ref

           Parameters:

           •   user: mandatory string

           •   repo: mandatory string

           •   ref: mandatory string

               The key ref must be formatted as "heads/branch", not just "branch". For example,
               the call to get the data for a branch named "sc/featureA" would be:
               "heads/sc/featureA"

           Examples:

               my $r = Pithub::GitData::References->new;
               my $result = $r->get(
                   user => 'plu',
                   repo => 'Pithub',
                   ref  => 'heads/master'
               );

           Response: Status: 200 OK

               {
                   "ref": "refs/heads/sc/featureA",
                   "url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/git/refs/heads/sc/featureA",
                   "object": {
                       "type": "commit",
                       "sha": "aa218f56b14c9653891f9e74264a383fa43fefbd",
                       "url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/git/commits/aa218f56b14c9653891f9e74264a383fa43fefbd"
                   }
               }

   list
       •   Get all References

               GET /repos/:user/:repo/git/refs

           This will return an array of all the references on the system, including things like
           notes and stashes if they exist on the server.  Anything in the namespace, not just
           heads and tags, though that would be the most common.

           Parameters:

           •   user: mandatory string

           •   repo: mandatory string

           Examples:

               my $r = Pithub::GitData::References->new;
               my $result = $r->list(
                   user => 'plu',
                   repo => 'Pithub',
               );

       •   You can also request a sub-namespace. For example, to get all the tag references, you
           can call:

               GET /repos/:user/:repo/git/refs/tags

           Parameters:

           •   user: mandatory string

           •   repo: mandatory string

           •   ref: mandatory string

           Examples:

               my $r = Pithub::GitData::References->new;
               my $result = $r->list(
                   user => 'plu',
                   repo => 'Pithub',
                   ref  => 'tags',
               );

           Response: Status: 200 OK

                   }
               ]

   update
       •   Update a Reference

               PATCH /repos/:user/:repo/git/refs/:ref

           Parameters:

           •   user: mandatory string

           •   repo: mandatory string

           •   ref: mandatory string

           •   data: mandatory hashref, having following keys:

               •   sha: mandatory string of the SHA1 value to set this reference to.

               •   force: optional boolean indicating whether to force the update or to make sure
                   the update is a fast-forward update. The default is "false" so leaving this
                   out or setting it to "false" will make sure you're not overwriting work.

           Examples:

               my $r = Pithub::GitData::References->new;
               my $result = $r->update(
                   user => 'plu',
                   repo => 'Pithub',
                   ref  => 'tags/v1.0',
                   data => {
                       force => 1,
                       sha   => 'aa218f56b14c9653891f9e74264a383fa43fefbd',
                   }
               );
