Find the revision you want to branch from. Either on Github itself or by doing a GET request from Hurl: https://api.github.com/repos/<AUTHOR>/<REPO>/git/refs/heads
Copy the revision hash
Do a POST request from Hurl to https://api.github.com/repos/<AUTHOR>/<REPO>/git/refs with the following as the POST body :
