In their words
Their pitchReturns the public profile of a GitHub account: login, name, bio, avatar, company, location, blog, social links, hireable flag, follower and following counts, public repository and gist counts, and account creation and update dates. Requires no GitHub credential of any kind. meta.source says where the answer came from: rest is the full profile. When the GitHub API limit is spent, the profile page answers instead with meta.source: html_profile: login, id, name, bio, avatar, company, location, blog, public repository count and follower and following counts. Counts GitHub shows rounded (for example 36k) are listed in meta.approximate_fields.
