Heroku doesn't seem to support personal access tokens for private GitHub repositories in requirements.txt for Python. I tried setting my GitHub PAT as a config var but got hit with "fatal: could not read Password for 'https://${GITHUB_PAT}@github.com': No such device or address" in the build log.

Heroku doesn't seem to support personal access tokens for private GitHub repositories in
requirements.txt
for Python. I tried setting my GitHub PAT as a config var but got hit with "fatal: could not read Password for 'https://${GITHUB_PAT}@github.com': No such device or address" in the build log.In the docs, Heroku suggests using HTTP Basic Authentication through the user:password format. However, this method has been deprecated on GitHub since 2021.
Is there any reason why Heroku can't do this natively? Any help would be appreciated.
