When running `gh api /repos/...` in the Git Bash on Windows, it leads to a 404. The reason is the automatic path conversion from "Unix-y" paths on the command-line to proper Windows paths, as described in detail https://www.msys2.org/docs/filesystem-paths/. Git Bash simply has no chance to understnad that `/repos/...` is not referring to an absolute path on the local filesystem. Let's just skip the leading slash. This is as valid an invocation, and sidesteps that path conversion on Windows. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

GitHub stores CodeQL databases for over 200,000 repos on GitHub.com, which you can download using the REST API. The list of repos is constantly growing and evolving to make sure that it includes the most interesting codebases for security research.
|
|
|
|
You can check if a repository has any CodeQL databases available for download using the ``/repos/<owner>/<repo>/code-scanning/codeql/databases`` endpoint.
|
|
For example, to check for CodeQL databases using the `GitHub CLI <https://cli.github.com/manual/gh_api>`__ you would run::
|
|
|
|
gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/code-scanning/codeql/databases
|
|
|
|
This command returns information about any CodeQL databases that are available for a repository, including the language the database represents, and when the database was last updated. If no CodeQL databases are available, the response is empty.
|
|
|
|
When you have confirmed that a CodeQL database exists for the language you are interested in, you can download it using the following command::
|
|
|
|
gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/code-scanning/codeql/databases/<language> -H 'Accept: application/zip' > path/to/local/database.zip
|
|
|
|
For more information, see the documentation for the `Get CodeQL database <https://docs.github.com/en/rest/code-scanning#get-a-codeql-database-for-a-repository>`__ endpoint in the GitHub REST API documentation.
