Overview ¶
Gist is a client for creating GitHub Gists.
usage: gist [-v] [-p] [-a] [-d string] file ... | -f file
Gist uploads local file[s] to gist.github.com and prints information about the created Gist. Default user is the authenticated user.
Authentication ¶
Gist expects to find a GitHub "personal access token" in $HOME/.github-gist-token and will that token to authenticate to Github when writing Gist data. A token can be created by visiting https://github.com/settings/tokens/new. The token only needs the 'gist' scope checkbox. It does not need any other permissions. The -token flag specifies an alternate file from which to read the token.
