+ [8 years ago] lrochfort Stummi: OK, and then let upstream worry about the merge?
+ [8 years ago] Stummi yeah, thats how I would do it
+ [8 years ago] lrochfort Sounds good. Thanks for the advice.
+ [8 years ago] GodGinrai is there a way to execute a hook pre-merge on github? I want to execute a hook that creates a backup branch of the branch being merged into every time you try to merge a PR using Github's UI
+ [8 years ago] Sasazuka Just enabled 2FA on my github account but I was getting "fatal repo not found" error for a private repo and I had to enable the "repo" scopes for my personal access token - just wondering if that's the correct scope?

message no. 166019

+ [8 years ago] buzzedword im trying to complete an integration authentication following the directions located here: https://developer.github.com/early-access/integrations/authentication/#as-an-integration
+ [8 years ago] buzzedword i dont fully understand what's happening in the example provided where we use the PEM file provided after you create your integration, and generate a private key to use to sign the JWT
+ [8 years ago] buzzedword i dont really work with JWT or OpenSSL that often, so i was under the assumption that the .pem github provides is the key thats needed, but it clearly needs more-- what specifically is being generated in the `OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new` step in the example?
+ [8 years ago] buzzedword further, reading the ruby stdlib docs, the `new` method generates an "RSA instance" or an "RSA keypair", but again, is unclear as to if its public/private, format, or encoding
