Creating a repository

[csgillespie]

This works

me = get.myself(ctx)
me$content$login
[1] "csgillespie"

When I try to create a repo I get:

Are you sure you're authenticating correctly (I'm guessing, eg, oauth scopes might be the problem)?

I just tried this:

> create.github.context(personal_token = "my-personal-token-here")
> create.repository(name="my_test_repo")

And you can see that it did the right thing.

[csgillespie]

I didn't run create.github.context.

Thanks

This snippet:

Adding .httr-oauth to .gitignore

makes me think it's some weird HTTR interaction. I know httr changed recently, and so I want to keep an eye on it. For the time being, creating a personal access token is the easiest thing to do.
