This currently fails for GitHub (and possibly other Git repositories) because there is an assumption in the client.go file that the subDir segment is always a directory.

However, for the URL "https://github.com/owner/repo/subdir/file.txt[](https://github.com/arikkfir)" the "subDir" variable would actually be a file (subdir/file.txt) and hence the client should use copyFile rather than copyDir when copying the subDir to the final destination.

This change fixes that to check whether the "subDir" variable is a file or a directory, and appropriately uses copyDir or copyFile. It also returns the single file in the "GetResult" object, if indeed a single file was requested.

Tests attached.

This fixes #98

Rebased branch to include new commits since April 2022 - and the change is still relevant and needed.

This currently fails for GitHub (and possibly other Git repositories)
because there is an assumption in the "client.go" file that the "subDir"
segment is always a directory.

However, for this URL:

https://github.com/owner/repo/subdir/file.txt

The "subDir" variable would actually be a file ("subdir/file.txt") and
hence the client should use "copyFile" rather than "copyDir" when
copying the "subDir" to the final destination.

This change fixes that to check whether the "subDir" variable is a file
or a directory, and appropriately uses "copyDir" or "copyFile". It also
returns the single file in the "GetResult" object, if indeed a single
file was requested.

Rebased this branch off of the v2.1.0 tag, so that it can be fully compatible with the v2.1.0 release (with the addition of this fix).
