If the number of changes matching the query exceeds either the internal
limit or a supplied `n` query parameter, the last change object has a
`_more_changes: true` JSON field set.
The `S` or `start` query parameter can be supplied to skip a number
of changes from the list.
Clients are allowed to specify more than one query by setting the `q`
parameter multiple times. In this case the result is an array of
arrays, one per query in the same order the queries were given in.

[[query-options]]
Additional fields can be obtained by adding `o` parameters, each
option requires more database lookups and slows down the query
response time to the client so they are generally disabled by
default. Optional fields are:
[[labels]]
--
* `LABELS`: a summary of each label required for submit, and
approvers that have granted (or rejected) with that label.
--
[[detailed-labels]]
--
* `DETAILED_LABELS`: detailed label information, including numeric
values of all existing approvals, recognized label values, values
permitted to be set by the current user, all reviewers by state, and
reviewers that may be removed by the current user.
--
[[current-revision]]
--
* `CURRENT_REVISION`: describe the current revision (patch set)
of the change, including the commit SHA-1 and URLs to fetch from.
--
[[all-revisions]]
--
* `ALL_REVISIONS`: describe all revisions, not just current.
--
[[download-commands]]
--
* `DOWNLOAD_COMMANDS`: include the `commands` field in the
link:#fetch-info[FetchInfo] for revisions. Only valid when the
`CURRENT_REVISION` or `ALL_REVISIONS` option is selected.
--
[[current-commit]]
--
* `CURRENT_COMMIT`: parse and output all header fields from the
commit object, including message. Only valid when the
`CURRENT_REVISION` or `ALL_REVISIONS` option is selected.
--
[[all-commits]]
--
* `ALL_COMMITS`: parse and output all header fields from the
output revisions. If only `CURRENT_REVISION` was requested
then only the current revision's commit data will be output.
--
[[current-files]]
--
* `CURRENT_FILES`: list files modified by the commit, including
basic line counts inserted/deleted per file. Only valid when
the `CURRENT_REVISION` or `ALL_REVISIONS` option is selected.
--
[[all-files]]
--
* `ALL_FILES`: list files modified by the commit, including
basic line counts inserted/deleted per file. If only the
`CURRENT_REVISION` was requested then only that commit's
modified files will be output.
--
[[detailed-accounts]]
--
* `DETAILED_ACCOUNTS`: include `_account_id`, `email` and `username`
fields when referencing accounts.
--
[[reviewer-updates]]
--
* `REVIEWER_UPDATES`: include updates to reviewers set as
link:#review-update-info[ReviewerUpdateInfo] entities.
--
[[messages]]
--
* `MESSAGES`: include messages associated with the change.
--
[[actions]]
--
* `CURRENT_ACTIONS`: include information on available actions
for the change and its current revision. Ignored if the caller
is not authenticated.
--
[[change-actions]]
--
* `CHANGE_ACTIONS`: include information on available
change actions for the change. Ignored if the caller
is not authenticated.
--
[[reviewed]]
--
* `REVIEWED`: include the `reviewed` field if all of the following are
true:
* the change is open
* the caller is authenticated
* the caller has commented on the change more recently than the last update
from the change owner, i.e. this change would show up in the results of
link:user-search.html#reviewedby[reviewedby:self].
--
[[web-links]]
--
* `WEB_LINKS`: include the `web_links` field in link:#commit-info[CommitInfo],
therefore only valid in combination with `CURRENT_COMMIT` or
`ALL_COMMITS`.
--
[[check]]
--
* `CHECK`: include potential problems with the change.
--
[[commit-footers]]
--
* `COMMIT_FOOTERS`: include the full commit message with
Gerrit-specific commit footers in the
link:#revision-info[RevisionInfo].
--
[[push-certificates]]
--
* `PUSH_CERTIFICATES`: include push certificate information in the
link:#revision-info[RevisionInfo]. Ignored if signed push is not
link:config-gerrit.html#receive.enableSignedPush[enabled] on the
server.

The request parameter `reviewed` changes the response to return a list

need the FileInfo should make two requests.
The request parameter `q` changes the response to return a list
of all files (modified or unmodified) that contain that substring
in the path name. This is useful to implement suggestion services
finding a file by partial name.
The integer-valued request parameter `parent` changes the response to return a
list of the files which are different in this commit compared to the given
parent commit. This is useful for supporting review of merge commits. The value
is the 1-based index of the parent's position in the commit object.

Content-Type is always `text/plain`, reflecting the base64 wrapping.

avoid downloading the encoded file contents.

=== Download Content
--
'GET /changes/link:#change-id[\{change-id\}]/revisions/link:#revision-id[\{revision-id\}]/files/link:#file-id[\{file-id\}]/download'
--
Downloads the content of a file from a certain revision, in a safe format
that poses no risk for inadvertent execution of untrusted code.
If the content type is defined as safe, the binary file content is returned
verbatim. If the content type is not safe, the file is stored inside a ZIP
file, containing a single entry with a random, unpredictable name having the
same base and suffix as the true filename. The ZIP file is returned in
verbatim binary form.
See link:config-gerrit.html#mimetype.name.safe[Gerrit config documentation]
for information about safe file type configuration.
The HTTP resource Content-Type is dependent on the file type: the
applicable type for safe files, or "application/zip" for unsafe files.
The optional, integer-valued `parent` parameter can be specified to request
the named file from a parent commit of the specified revision. The value is
the 1-based index of the parent's position in the commit object. If the
parameter is omitted or the value non-positive, the patch set is referenced.
Filenames are decorated with a suffix of `_new` for the current patch,
`_old` for the only parent, or `_oldN` for the Nth parent of many.
