Environment Setup

This repository uses a .env file for configuration, including GitHub authentication.

Loading Environment Variables

To load environment variables from .env:

source load_env.sh

This will export GITHUB_TOKEN and other variables from .env to your current shell session.

Using GITHUB_TOKEN

The GITHUB_TOKEN can be used for:

1. GitHub API calls: Export it and use in scripts or API requests

   source load_env.sh
   curl -H "Authorization: token $GITHUB_TOKEN" https://api.github.com/user
   

2. Git HTTPS authentication (if needed): Configure git to use the token:

   git config credential.helper "$(pwd)/git-credential-helper.sh"
   

Note: This repository is currently configured to use SSH authentication (recommended). The token is available for other GitHub API operations if needed.
