gitlab push webhook can't detect file renames
Created by: pmelopereira
Hi. I wrote a webhook to process push events from GitLab but found that the Json POST request body does not contain anything to distinguish file renames. What we get in the response is: added, modified and removed. Whenever there is a rename in the repository, the webhook gets a new added file.
Is there any way to get more information on the added file, or alternatively get a new 'renamed' attribute in the Json request ?
Git commands: $ git add . -A $ git status On branch master Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'. Changes to be committed: (use "git reset HEAD ..." to unstage)
renamed: folder1/new_file.txt -> folder1/renamed_file.txt
Example Json: { object_kind: 'push', before: '6b2e4965f857c08410b1a94ca59ba7c16dba9bd4', after: '41d319893e68135d156e4a6932649e7cfea05376', ref: 'refs/heads/master', checkout_sha: '41d319893e68135d156e4a6932649e7cfea05376', message: null, user_id: 2, user_name: 'nb20308', user_email: '[email protected] (nb20308%40novabase.pt)', user_avatar: '___http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/8d8e3312ac544ffef2e27703c819a6e6?s=80&d=identicon', project_id: 1, project: { name: 'test', description: '', web_url: '__http://b273ef1ce41a/root/test', avatar_url: null, git_ssh_url: 'git@b273ef1ce41a:root/test.git', git_http_url: '__http://b273ef1ce41a/root/test.git', namespace: 'root', visibility_level: 0, path_with_namespace: 'root/test', default_branch: 'master', homepage: '__http://b273ef1ce41a/root/test', url: 'git@b273ef1ce41a:root/test.git', ssh_url: 'git@b273ef1ce41a:root/test.git', http_url: '__http://b273ef1ce41a/root/test.git' }, commits: [{ id: '41d319893e68135d156e4a6932649e7cfea05376', message: 'renamed test\n', timestamp: '2016-03-28T16:55:29+01:00', url: '__http://b273ef1ce41a/root/test/commit/41d319893e68135d156e4a6932649e7cfea05376', author: [Object], added: [Object], modified: [], removed: [] }], total_commits_count: 1, repository: { name: 'test', url: 'git@b273ef1ce41a:root/test.git', description: '', homepage: '__http://b273ef1ce41a/root/test', git_http_url: '__http://b273ef1ce41a/root/test.git', git_ssh_url: 'git@b273ef1ce41a:root/test.git', visibility_level: 0 } }
