REST-API-Endpunkte für Git-BLOBs

Verwende die REST-API, um mit einem Git-Blob (Binary Large Object) zu interagieren. Git-Blob ist der Objekttyp, der zum Speichern des Inhalts jeder Datei in einem Repository verwendet wird.

Informationen zu Git-Blobs

Ein Git-Blob (Binary Large Object) ist der Objekttyp, der zum Speichern des Inhalts jeder Datei in einem Repository verwendet wird. Der SHA-1-Hash der Datei wird berechnet und im Blobobjekt gespeichert. Diese Endpunkte ermöglichen dir das Lesen und Schreiben von Blobobjekten in deine Git-Datenbank auf GitHub. Blobs nutzen benutzerdefinierte Medientypen. Weitere Informationen zur Verwendung von Medientypen in der API findest du unter Erste Schritte mit der REST-API.
