Eventually this will be a python module to access the GitHub v3 API.
This is not stable yet and there is no backwards compatibility yet. There will likely be some changes which change behavior in the near future.
$ pip install github3.py

Please see the section of the documentation pertaining to this.
If you want to run the unittests with authentication, simply run:
make alltests
From the root of the repository. If you would rather see what will take place on Travis, run:
make travis # or make tests
To test how much of the library is covered:
make coverage_auth # equivalently make coverage_all # or without authentication make coverage
Depending on which you run, you will see different percentages reported by
coverage. As of this writing (2012-10-05), coverage_auth reports 98% of
the library is covered and every module has coverage >= 93%.

That one miss from github3/api is bizarre since I know for a fact that
there's a test for it in tests/test_api. I wouldn't know how to reproduce
it, so I won't report it to nedbat.
