Upload attachments to GitHub in CLI

The easiest way to get public URL to your files.

Every time I need a public and free URL to host my images, I always open an issue on GitHub and drag some files into the textarea, then I finally got some public URLs.

Just like another CLI tool nba-go I built three weeks before. Watching NBA and getting a free URL are both so annoying to me. Therefore, I built this simple CLI tool to do all of those uploading stuff automatically.

Hope you guys like it.

So I think this is pretty cool, because I do this same thing all the time to upload images in a pinch, especially for images/files to be used within a readme.

Instead of using a fake account, hardcoding the password, and using a headless browser to do your bidding—why not just use the API endpoint GitHub is actually using to upload the files? Then you could let users use their own GitHub tokens.
