fixes #170
Problem to be solved
When using
secret.GITHUB_TOKENas a token to call GitHub API, “Secondary rate limit” error occurred frequently and the process stopped there.Solution to the problem
If a “Secondary rate limit” error occurs, wait for a certain period of time and retry according to the response header.
Use go-github-ratelimit for retry mechanism.
