Hi,
Prefer to compile a 2.20.3~alpha of devscripts to avoid problems with
Perl path (modified code is in /usr/share/perl5/Devscripts/Uscan/)
To use it (with last changes:
uscan --http-header=https://github.com@GitHubToken=value
Token will be sent only to URL starting with https://github.com. Then
this option can be set by default. Use --verbose to see what happens
Cheers,
Xavier
