Description

In current gitea version, the responses of the API for "Get a single commit from a repository" GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/git/commits/{sha} don't include enough infomation that I need, for example:

I want to show the diffs file by file or summary of a commit, and there's only filenames I can aquire, my expectation:

{
   ...
   stats: {
       total: a number for lines of code changed of this commit,
       additions: a number for lines of code added of this commit,
       deletions: a number for lines of code deleted of this commit,
   },
   files: [
      {
         parent: 'the blob sha of this file before changed (in order to do content diff)',
         sha: 'the blob sha of this file after changed',
         filename: 'the file path',
         status: 'modified | added | deleted',
         additions: a number for lines of code added,
         deletions: a number for lines of code deleted,
         changes: a number for lines of code added plus deleted,
         patch: 'the git diff string, when the sha and parent fields are provided, this field is not nessesary, I think',
         ...
      }
   ]
   ...
}
