Failure with 'got fork <repo>' command, v 1.22 about app-gitgot

[genehack]

This is actually a bug in Net::GitHub, which is what GitGot uses to talk to GitHub. I've reported that bug as fayland/perl-net-github#61

As a workaround, you can also downgrade to Net::GitHub v0.72. If you use cpanm, that is as simple as:

Thanks, John, that worked, but now I have another issue: "got fork -v " correctly forked repo to my gitgub account and then produced a local copy in my desired directory, but I saw no evidence of what was happening until the process quit and I saw my shiny new repo working directory.

'got fork --verbose ' didn't show info either.

Yeah, it's UNIX-ish in that it doesn't make a whole lot of noise about what it's doing. What sort of output where you expecting?

The usual info such as telling me it's creating a fork in my github
account, cloning it locally, etc.

It would also be useful for 'got fork' to go ahead and set up the
local repo with remotes to fetch from upstream and push to the user's
github account.

Other got commands could simplify the syncing necessary from upstream
to local and back to the user's github repo in preparation for the
user to make a pull request in his parent github repo.

Your 'got' is very neat and could be very useful, especially for those
of us trying to contribute to Per 6.

Best regards,

I opened two new issues (#51, #52) for these two feature requests. Thanks for suggesting them. 8^)
