Note that token and API calls are useful if you want to automate things or move multiple repositories at once. |
Create a personal token in code.harvard.edu:
on https://code.harvard.edu/settings/tokens -> Generate new token (or https://code.harvard.edu/settings/tokens/new).
fill out the Token description
check the "Repo" box in the Select Scope.
For more help with the personal token look at: https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line
For Simplicity, assign the token value to a variable (say AUTH_TOKEN).
