What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://docs.github.com/en/rest/git/trees?apiVersion=2022-11-28#get-a-tree

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

The description for the 'Get a tree' API says "Returns a single tree using the SHA1 value for that tree.". However, it seems that the SHA1 value can be either the tree OR a commit SHA1. It would be helpful to document that either value can be used. Other APIs return links to the get tree API (e.g. get submodule contents) that use the commit SHA1, not the actual git tree SHA1.

Thank you for opening this issue! Updates to the REST API, GraphQL API, and webhook reference documentation must be made internally. I have copied your issue to an internal issue, so I will close this issue.
