Retrieving the commit message and hash from a set of Github commits
I have a database of the links to GitHub commits (or hashes) of some projects. I want to do a sentiment analysis of commit comments (messages). I need to print the commit message of one given commit but from a big set of the projects.
However, how can I do this without cloning all of the projects and retrieving the information from the specific commits individually?

You can use the official GitHub REST API v3, specifically the commits endpoint of the Git database API and retrieve the commit as a JSON object. The syntax is the following:
GET /repos/:owner/:repo/git/commits/:commit_sha
Replace :owner, :repo and :commit_sha by correct values.
For example:
GET https://api.github.com/repos/torvalds/linux/git/commits/8dc765d438f1e42b3e8227b3b09fad7d73f4ec9a
is the JSON representation of this commit:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/8dc765d438f1e42b3e8227b3b09fad7d73f4ec9a
with a field message containing the commit message.
