never got any notification

[dotnetCarpenter]

I've been running github-notifier for months and never got any notification (finally spend some time looking into why).

In verbose mode I get:

[INFO] 05 May 10:11:44

When I try to follow the URLs via curl, I first get a 301 for http://github.com/dotnetCarpenter.private.atom to https://github.com/dotnetCarpenter.private.atom (updating to HTTPS). And then a 401 (Unauthorized).

curl -v --anyauth https://github.com/dotnetCarpenter.private.atom?token=[REMOVED]

Is there anything I can do to debug?

I wonder if you might be using the wrong token? Could you double check that you use the token from the "Subscribe to your news feed" link which is at the bottom of your github main page, just below your feed.

[dotnetCarpenter]

Yes, the token is wrong. It's a long time ago I setup github-notifier - I don't remember where you set the token. The readme doesn't say and running github-notifier -n does not put a token in config.cfg.

[abiczo]

If I recall correctly the token was something that people often had in their git configs and probably that's why it was never mentioned in the readme but not 100% sure though. Either way, you are right, the readme should have instructions on how to get the token. Any chance you want to send out a pull request for that? If not, I can take a look maybe next week.
