Purpose
If we execute a lot of Arnold command, this will reach the Github API rate limiting.
When we reach the limit Arnold will fail because it can parse the Github response and stop with this error
Proposal
Use the environment variable
GITHUB_TOKENto authenticate to the Github API and increase the API rate limiting.
