References

Reference lookup:

>>> all_refs = repo.listall_references()
>>> master_ref = repo.lookup_reference("refs/heads/master")
>>> commit = repo[master_ref.oid]

Reference log:

>>> head = repo.lookup_reference('refs/heads/master')
>>> for entry in head.log():
...     print(entry.message)

The interface for RefLogEntry:

RefLogEntry.committer -- Signature of Committer
RefLogEntry.message   -- the message of the RefLogEntry
RefLogEntry.oid_old   -- oid of old reference
RefLogEntry.oid_new   -- oid of new reference
