GitHub Wyam.GitHub

Outputs metadata for information from GitHub.
This modules uses the Octokit library and associated types to submit requests to GitHub. Because of the large number of different kinds of requests, this module does not attempt to provide a fully abstract wrapper around the Octokit library. Instead, it simplifies the housekeeping involved in setting up an Octokit client and requires you to provide functions that fetch whatever data you need. Each request will be sent for each input document.
