# Github Oauth

# First, setup https authentication to not prompt for username and password
export GITHUB_PASSWORD='replace_this_with_your_github_password'
curl -u 'fapestniegd' -d '{"scopes":[],"note":"read-only token"}' https://fapestniegd:${GITHUB_PASSWORD}@api.git
# and empty scope means public read-only access (includes public user profile info, public repo info, and gists).
# see: => http://developer.github.com/v3/oauth/#scopes
#  "scopes": [ 
#              "user",        # Read/write access to profile info only.
#              "public_repo", # Read/write access to public repos and organizations.
#              "repo",        # Read/write access to public and private repos and organizations.
#              "repo:status", # Read/write access to public and private repo statuses. 
#                             #   Does not include access to code - use repo for that.
#              "delete_repo", # Delete access to adminable repositories.
#              "gist",        # Write access to gists. 
#            ],
