HACS has a problem with hitting the GitHub rate limit when you first install it. It’s not really that big of a deal. You usually just need to wait an hour for the local database to populate.
It used to be optional to link your GitHub to HACS to bypass the rate limiting but now it seems the installation requires it.
I’m not a fan of this as somebody who uses Homeassistant for its privacy values and am kind of frustrated HACS removed the ability to install without a GitHub API key.
Is there a manual way to override the API linking process?
Big trouble, mister. They’re gonna git you!
