IndexError: list index out of range with a lot of starred repos

[GitGitro]

Hi! i was tinkering with this bot and loving it so far but i encountered an error while adding my starred repos as i have a lot of them. Here is the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

IndexError: list index out of range

also maybe a flag to do it silently instead of posting every added repo would a nice to have feature, only a notification when finished. But that's a plus, up to you.

if you need more logs/environment setup etc. feel free to ask. Thank you!

Following up:

maybe i found a fix but i'm not sure, i keep getting timed out errors because the bot sends too many messages at once.

from telegram faqs: In a group, bots are not be able to send more than 20 messages per minute.

So either the silent option i mentioned above or some kind of delay between each message would be really nice to avoid rate limits from telegram
