The server needs to be supplied with GitHub authentication credentials so it can push to public or private repos on GitHub.
There are a couple of different ways this could work.
Initially this only needs to support one user who runs their own copy of the server. However, even this one user may want to run multiple blogs in multiple repos.
Config files
As part of setup, edit config files or environment variables to include:
- GitHub username
- repo name / path — eg user/repo or organization/repo
- personal access token
Web setup
Using a web interface provided by the server, perform OAuth authorization of the server, including selecting one or more repos.
