Table: github_search_commit - Query GitHub Commits using SQL

GitHub Commits is a feature within the GitHub service that allows users to make changes to a repository. Each commit corresponds to a specific change made to the repository, and includes information about the author, the date of the commit, and an associated message describing the change. GitHub Commits form the core of GitHub's version control functionality.

Table Usage Guide

The github_search_commit table enables insights into commit activities within GitHub repositories. As a developer or project manager, leverage this table to track changes, monitor project progress, and maintain version control. Utilize it to search for specific commits based on various criteria, such as author, date, and associated message.

Important Notes

  • You must always include at least one search term when searching source code in the where or join clause using the query column. You can narrow the results using these commit search qualifiers in any combination. See Searching commits for details on the GitHub query syntax.

Export

This table is available as a standalone Exporter CLI. Steampipe exporters are stand-alone binaries that allow you to extract data using Steampipe plugins without a database.

You can download the tarball for your platform from the Releases page, but it is simplest to install them with the steampipe_export_installer.sh script:

/bin/sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://steampipe.io/install/export.sh)" -- github

You can pass the configuration to the command with the --config argument:

steampipe_export_github --config '<your_config>' github_search_commit
