* Now also backs up the repos a user has starred, when run with a user's
  name.
* Now finds and backs up the parent repository that a repository got forked
  from.
* Uses authentication for all API calls.
* Fairer ordering of requests when backing up many repositories at once.
* Avoid making requests for data that has already been backed up until
  after new data has been backed up. Handles API rate limiting much better.
  Closes: #723859

* Now also backs up the repos a user is watching, when run with a user's
  name. Useful if you want to back up repositories that you have not forked;
  just watch them and run github-backup.
* Can now log in to github, to avoid increasingly small API rate limits.
  Set GITHUB_USER and GITHUB_PASSWORD environment to enable.
  Note that a few api calls don't use authentication; see
  https://github.com/fpco/github/issues/40
* Build-Depend on git. Closes: #728481
* Don't include tmp directory in files stored in the github branch.
