deprecation password GitHub API

Open ferdymercury opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

I get this e-mail warning when using gitim:

On June 21st, 2020 at 14:55 (UTC) you used a password to access an endpoint through the GitHub API using PyGithub/Python:

https://api.github.com/user

Basic authentication using a password to the API is deprecated and will soon no longer work. Visit https://developer.github.com/changes/2020-02-14-deprecating-password-auth/ for more information around suggested workarounds and removal dates.

Thanks,
The GitHub Team

You will still be able to use gitim with a GitHub OAuth token, although this may be a hurdle.
