Commits API
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 thecommitted_date
field. - The
committed_date
andauthored_date
fields are generated from different sources, and may not be identical.

}
In the event of a failed cherry-pick, the response provides context about why:
{
"message": "Sorry, we cannot cherry-pick this commit automatically. This commit may already have been cherry-picked, or a more recent commit may have updated some of its content.",
"error_code": "empty"
}
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
:
{
"dry_run": "success"
}
In the event of a failure, an error displays that is identical to a failure without dry run.
Revert a commit
Reverts a commit in a given branch.
POST /projects/:id/repository/commits/:sha/revert
Parameters:
Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
id | integer/string | yes | The ID or URL-encoded path of the project |
sha | string | yes | Commit SHA to revert |
branch | string | yes | Target branch name |
dry_run | boolean | no | Does not commit any changes. Default is false. Introduced in GitLab 13.3 |

In the event of a failed revert, the response provides context about why:
{
"message": "Sorry, we cannot revert this commit automatically. This commit may already have been reverted, or a more recent commit may have updated some of its content.",
"error_code": "conflict"
}
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
