and for unauthenticated interactions this API is [rate-limited](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/overview/resources-in-the-rest-api#rate-limiting) to 60 calls per hour per source (IP Address). This is vital for keeping the API responsive and available to all users, but can be inconvenient if you have a lot of GitHub releases being handled by `deb-get` (or need to update several times in a short period to test your [contribution](CONTRIBUTING.md)) and will result in, for example, temporary failures to be able to upgrade or install applications via GitHub Releases

If you have a GitHub account you can authenticate your GitHub API usage to increase your rate-limit to 5000 requests per hour per authenticated user. To do this you will need to use a [Personal Access Token (PAT)](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/creating-a-personal-access-token). Once you have created a token within GitHub (or identified an appropriate exiting token) you should insert it into an environment variable (`DEBGET_TOKEN`) for `deb-get` to pick up and use to authenticate to the GitHub API.
