Don't push to GitHub when there are no changes (Bird Spam 🔥🐦) #6

Oh my goshness, I'd feel bad for the poor GitHub gist servers! Does it make a "blank" revision each time it checks for a new Tweet? Ideally if there are no updates, nothing should happen and no update/revision should be made. You currently have 7,236 revisions to your bird-box here: https://gist.github.com/matchai/6d5f84419863089a167387da62dd7081/revisions :see_no_evil:

Alt-text: A screenshot showing 30 revisions with "No changes" to the bird-box pinned Gist, all for the 8th of May.

:fire::fire_engine: — This has gotten bad enough to make GitHub return a 500 error when clicking on revisions, oh dear.
