Overview¶

This tool tests for the JSON mappings in the go-github data types. It willidentify fields that are returned by the live GitHub API, but that are notcurrently mapped into a struct field of the relevant go-github type. Thishelps to ensure that all relevant data returned by the API is being madeaccessible, particularly new fields that are periodically (and sometimesquietly) added to the API over time.

These tests simply aid in identifying which fields aren't being mapped; itis not necessarily true that every one of them should always be mapped.Some fields may be undocumented for a reason, either because they aren'tactually used yet or should not be relied upon.
