Requires now to set an env var for the PAT:

export PAT=...

The .env files are then generated for you (where there's a .env.sample).

I think generally we can ask for required env vars first and then populate the files automatically, right?

We cannot include the OAuth Client Secret in the OpenQ-Github-OAuth-Server .env.sample because when the Git Guardian bot detects the secret, it revokes it.

~Not true for OAuth app secrets (to my own surprise): https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/secret-scanning/secret-scanning-patterns#supported-secrets-for-user-alerts~

I confused GitHub's internal scanning with this GitGuardian bot. It in deed removes the secret but maybe it can still be obfuscated with base64 or something. Alternatively devs need to be instructed to create their own OAuth app.

I also added functionality to boot from forks:

export OPENQ_FORKS=username/OpenQ-Frontend,username/OpenQ-Contracts

🛠 Guidelines to remediate hardcoded secrets
1. Understand the implications of revoking this secret by investigating where it is used in your code. 2. Replace and store your secret safely. [Learn here](https://blog.gitguardian.com/secrets-api-management?utm_source=product&utm_medium=GitHub_checks&utm_campaign=check_run_comment) the best practices. 3. Revoke and [rotate this secret](https://docs.gitguardian.com/secrets-detection/detectors/generics/generic_high_entropy_secret#revoke-the-secret?utm_source=product&utm_medium=GitHub_checks&utm_campaign=check_run_comment). 4. If possible, [rewrite git history](https://blog.gitguardian.com/rewriting-git-history-cheatsheet?utm_source=product&utm_medium=GitHub_checks&utm_campaign=check_run_comment). Rewriting git history is not a trivial act. You might completely break other contributing developers' workflow and you risk accidentally deleting legitimate data. To avoid such incidents in the future consider - following these [best practices](https://blog.gitguardian.com/secrets-api-management/?utm_source=product&utm_medium=GitHub_checks&utm_campaign=check_run_comment) for managing and storing secrets including API keys and other credentials - install [secret detection on pre-commit](https://https://docs.gitguardian.com/ggshield-docs/integrations/git-hooks/pre-commit?utm_source=product&utm_medium=GitHub_checks&utm_campaign=check_run_comment) to catch secret before it leaves your machine and ease remediation.
