Add Repository files > Get file from repository operation to the OOTB GitLab Connector

[wollefitz]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

If I want to create a GitLab merge request from within my C8 process, I have to manually put in all necessary data using the REST Connector to call https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/repository_files.html#get-file-from-repository. This is quite error-prone since I have to know all necessary headers and define the request body correctly.

Describe the solution you'd like

Using the GitLab connector, I would like to have the option to get a repository file.
I would want to input as little data as possible and as much custom data as required.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Use the REST Connector and define my own template once I figured out all the necessary headers and how to define the body correctly.
