# Note the id from the hook that you're interested in. In this case, it's 629092
id = 629092
 
# Grab that hook's data
>>> r = requests.get('https://api.github.com/repos/kamens/gae_mini_profiler/hooks/%s' % id, auth=('kamens', 'dontyouwish'))
>>> data = r.json
 
# Modify events
>>> data["events"] = ["push", "fork"]  # see list of events @ http://developer.github.com/v3/repos/hooks/#get-single-hook
 
# Patch up hook
>>> r = requests.patch('https://api.github.com/repos/kamens/gae_mini_profiler/hooks/%s' % id, data=json.dumps(data), auth=('kamens', 'dontyouwish'))
 
# r.response_code should be 200, hook should be updated
