Usage

GitHub Login

Friends currently uses your git and github configuration for authentication.

If you don't already have a public key on GitHub and corresponding private key on your machine, you'll need to set that up first. Make sure your github username is also set, using git config --global github.user yourusername.

If you're having trouble getting this part to work, do this to get debug information:

$ npm i github-current-user -g
$ DEBUG=* github-current-user

and then report an issue.

Note: DSA keys are not supported. You should switch to RSA anyway for security reasons.

If it can't verify you, try doing ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa. Your key should show up when you run ssh-add -l.
