Gitlab API get repository tree recursively

How do I get a repository tree recursively using the Gitlab API?

I am currently using this method: GET /projects/:id/repository/tree?ref_name=:ref_name

This works, however it is not recursive and is only showing the files in the root directory.

I need to get a complete file list of ALL files in the repository, not just the ones in the root directory.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure if this is still an issue for you but if you add another url parameter, so it would read: GET /projects/:id/repository/tree?ref_name=:ref_name&recursive=true

Alternatively, if you are looking relative to a certain path, you could specify a path instead of a ref_name and it will be a little more friendly. GET /projects/:id/repository/tree?path=my/path?recursive=true

The API does not have this feature at the current time, however it is currently discussed (December 2015).

Check https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/4205 for discussion
