RestClient no longer returns an HTTPError about go-gh

[samcoe]

@nedredmond This is not a regression but I did a poor job of explaining this change in the the release notes. I wrote

Change methods on HTTPError and GraphQLError custom error types to take pointers as method receivers.

but didn't explain when that would make an impact. This is the exact case, when trying to do type assertions on the errors returned from the clients. You should be able to change your code to assert that the type returned is *api.HTTPError rather than api.HTTPError.

  if err.(*api.HTTPError).StatusCode == 404 {
    log.Fatal("special message")
  }

Hope this helps. Going to close this for now but let me know if this does not fix your issue.

Thanks @samcoe-- I saw the note and thought it was a much more complicated migration somehow. Appreciate the help!
