Things will work fine even if you do that!\n\n### Setup\n\n- Generate your `access token` from [`here`](https://github.com/settings/tokens) and copy it.\n- Run command `$ repocreate -c testrepo`\n- A `token.json` file will open in Sublime with -\n\t```json\n\t{\n\t  \"username\": \"enter your github username\",\n\t  \"token\":\"paste the access token\"\n\t}\n\t```\n- Enter your `username`, paste the `token` and save the file. You are ready to go!\n\n__`NOTE`__\n\n__`In case, you are not using sublime, follow the given steps -`__\n\n- Manually open the `token.json` file saved under `.repocreate` folder under `home directory`\n\n__`or`__\n\n- Open the file using : `$ atom/code/vi ~/.repocreate/token.json`\n- Copy-paste the genereated `access token`\n- Save the file and that's it.\n\n#### __`Why?`__\n\n- I don't know, it's silly, but I use it. I don't know.\n\n### License\n\nMIT \u0026copy; [Rishi Giri](https://rishigiri.ml)\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcodedotjs%2Frepocreate","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcodedotjs%2Frepocreate","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcodedotjs%2Frepocreate/lists"}
