I need to retrieve all commits from Private repositories on github.

I already tried with with github API documentation. It provides the API for retrieving the public repository commits. https://api.github.com/repos/:owner/:repo/commits

A private repository means you need to authenticate in order to execute your query (here getting the commits).
This should work, if you own the private repo:

curl -u 'username:password' https://api.github.com/repos/:owner/:repo/commits
