I know other projects in similar positions have done...something. Too tired to research right now.
We could always write and host a little reverse proxy, and point gps to that, of course... 馃槢

Composer (PHP) get's around this by requesting that the user enters their GitHub credentials or generate an oauth token which is then stored on the system.

@jpudney yeah, i suspect something like that is probably going to be the path of least resistance.

I'd just have users create their own github api token.

homebrew brew search uses HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN
meaning at least some of your macOS users could possibly know how to do this already...
