Description of the problem, including code/CLI snippet

when trying to

from gitlab import Gitlab
project=Gitlab(GITLAB_SRC).projects.get(GITLAB_PROJECT_ID)
project.files.get(file_path=PATH_TO_FILE, ref=GITLAB_REF)

where PATH_TO_FILE is in the form of {directory}/{filename}, client returns not found error. (see github action: https://github.com/xgui3783/python-gitlab-exmaple/actions/runs/786113706)

I suspect this is due to double escaping the / character from:

• GetMixin.get (https://github.com/python-gitlab/python-gitlab/blob/8933113/gitlab/mixins.py#L104) and
• ProjectFileManager.get (

  python-gitlab/gitlab/v4/objects/files.py

  Line 97 in 8933113

  file_path = file_path.replace("/", "%2F")

  )

Expected Behavior

return file descriptor

Actual Behavior

not found error
