Specify a GitHub credential

Set the environment variable HTTP_BASIC_AUTH in the form of username:token.

See also personal access tokens. Generally, you should only grant the public_repo access to the token.

Use http proxy

Set the environment variable HTTP_PROXY to an HTTP proxy.

Note: A certain bug of Python might cause issues with HTTP proxies, which was later fixed in Python 3.12.
