Use this data source to retrieve information about a repository branch.
Example Usage
import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as github from "@pulumi/github";
const development = github.getBranch({
    repository: "example",
    branch: "development",
});
import pulumi
import pulumi_github as github
development = github.get_branch(repository="example",
    branch="development")
package main
import (
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-github/sdk/v6/go/github"
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
)
func main() {
	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
		_, err := github.LookupBranch(ctx, &github.LookupBranchArgs{
			Repository: "example",
			Branch:     "development",
		}, nil)
		if err != nil {
			return err

		return nil
	})

Using getBranch
Two invocation forms are available. The direct form accepts plain arguments and either blocks until the result value is available, or returns a Promise-wrapped result. The output form accepts Input-wrapped arguments and returns an Output-wrapped result.
function getBranch(args: GetBranchArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Promise<GetBranchResult>
function getBranchOutput(args: GetBranchOutputArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Output<GetBranchResult>def get_branch(branch: Optional[str] = None,
               repository: Optional[str] = None,
               opts: Optional[InvokeOptions] = None) -> GetBranchResult
def get_branch_output(branch: Optional[pulumi.Input[str]] = None,
               repository: Optional[pulumi.Input[str]] = None,
               opts: Optional[InvokeOptions] = None) -> Output[GetBranchResult]func LookupBranch(ctx *Context, args *LookupBranchArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) (*LookupBranchResult, error)
func LookupBranchOutput(ctx *Context, args *LookupBranchOutputArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) LookupBranchResultOutput> Note: This function is named LookupBranch in the Go SDK.
