Since GitHub allow to make only 50 requests without authentication it's recommended to run this scrip with key-t [your-16-digit-token] that you can easilygenerate it here.

So, if you got error like this:

! /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/github_api-0.12.2/lib/github_api/response/raise_error.rb:14:in `on_complete': GEThttps://api.github.com/repos/skywinder/ActionSheetPicker-3.0/git/commits/89678f7d7f66873c858e6cb07bf697192aca6768: 403 API rate limit exceeded for 195.88.177.9. (But here's the good news: Authenticated requests get a higher rate limit. Check out the documentation for more details.) (Github::Error::Forbidden)

It's time to generate this token or wait for 1 hour before GitHub reset counter for your IP.
