Doesn't work on private repos.

I just get a page of "nil"s.

Works great for public repos, though!

Thank you @coventry for the report. Yes, accessing private repos isn't available at the moment. I'll see to add this in a future release.

Ping ! Anything new on this ? Can you at least explain the issue ? Is it fixable ? thanks.

It's certainly doable with OAuth and elbow grease. The other issues thread suggests that it would solve an already well-solved problem, though.

Oh, and the technical issue is that some repositories are "private" in that you have to authenticate to github to view / manipulate them. So github-issues.el would need to be taught to "log in" to github before it could be used with those repositories.

Thanks !

:p meaning #10 "why not just use gh.el ?"

Yes.

Sorry for the delay. Thank you for the interest in this little project. I'd definitely advocate using gh.el instead of this one. Not only is deprecated but was also more intended as a learning project and I didn't expect to have people's attention. Thank you again for the interest! But sadly it is a long dead project as of now.

Ok, no pb. It was interesting to see it too.

Can you write this on the readme maybe ?
