# Get a commit

`GET /commits/{owner}/{repo}/{commit}`

Retrieves a specific commit by hash, tag, or "latest" for a repository.
This endpoint supports both authenticated and unauthenticated access.
Authenticated users can access private repos, while unauthenticated users can only access public repos.
Commit resolution logic:
- "latest" or empty: Get the most recent commit
- Less than 8 characters: Only check for tags
- 8 or more characters: Prioritize commit hash over tag, check both
