To pull a GitHub repository diff using the API, follow this plan:

1. Create a New Branch for Changes:

   • Use the create_new_branch function to create a new branch from the default branch (main). This is where you'll make changes or updates before creating a pull request.

     create_new_branch(branch="feature/diff-implementation")

2. Implement Diff Functionality:

   • You'll need to implement or update a function to fetch and compare diffs between branches. This might involve creating a new file or updating an existing one. For simplicity, let's assume we're adding a new file.

   • Use the create_file function to add a new Python script named diff_tool.py in the my_tiny_service/utils/ directory. This script will contain the logic to use GitHub's API to fetch diffs.

     create_file(
     path="my_tiny_service/utils/diff_tool.py",
     content="""
     import requests
     
     def fetch_diff(base_branch: str, target_branch: str) -> str:
        # Example function body. You'll need to replace this with actual implementation
        # that uses GitHub's API to fetch the diff between `base_branch` and `target_branch`.
        return "Diff content here"
     """,
     branch="feature/diff-implementation"
     )

3. Update API Endpoints (Optional):

   • If your project requires exposing this functionality through an API endpoint, you might need to update my_tiny_service/api/routers/root.py or create a new router file.
   • Use the request_edit function to request an update to root.py or another file to include a new endpoint that utilizes the fetch_diff function.

     request_edit(
     branch="feature/diff-implementation",
     path="my_tiny_service/api/routers/root.py",
     instruction="Add a new API endpoint '/api/diff' that uses the fetch_diff function from diff_tool.py to return diffs between branches."
     )

4. Create a Pull Request:

   • Once the changes are made, use the create_pull_request function to open a pull request from your new branch (feature/diff-implementation) into the default branch (main). This allows for code review and further testing before merging.

     create_pull_request(
     title="Implement GitHub Repository Diff Fetching",
     body="This pull request adds functionality to fetch diffs between branches using GitHub's API.",
     branch="feature/diff-implementation"
     )

This plan outlines the steps to implement functionality for pulling diffs from a GitHub repository using the API. Depending on the specific requirements of your project, some steps may need to be adjusted.
