## Definitions

### `dev.knotless.getLastCommits#entry`

**Type**: `object`

One entry of the directory, and the commit that last changed it.

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `name` | `string` | Yes | The entry's name in the directory. |
| `sha` | `string` | Yes | The commit that last changed it, in hex: one of `commits`. |

### `dev.knotless.getLastCommits`

**Type**: `query`

The newest commit to change each entry of a directory at a revision, as its history shows it: a commit that left an entry as one of its parents had it did not change it. Asked apart from dev.knotless.getTree, as finding them can walk a long history. No authentication needed; asked as an account, with a service token or the pages' session cookie, a private repository it is a member of is read too, and the answer is that account's alone.

#### Parameters

|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `path` | `string` | No | A directory in the tree, from its root. |
| `ref` | `string` | No | A branch, a tag or a commit, which may run on into the path, as dev.knotless.getTree takes it; the default branch if absent. |
| `repo` | `string` (at-uri) | Yes | The repository's dev.knotless.repo record, as dev.knotless.getTree takes it. |

#### Output

**Encoding**: `application/json`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `commits` | `array` | Yes | Each commit an entry names, once. |
| `entries` | `array` | Yes | Each entry of the directory, in the tree's order. |
| `path` | `string` | Yes | The directory, from the root; empty for the root. |
| `ref` | `string` | Yes | The ref or commit shown, as `ref` named it, less any path. |
