Mariano,
github rate limits requests (like those generated when doing tag
pattern matching) when using unauthenticated requests[1].
If you are not using the latest version of Metacello (on the master
branch), then you are not benefiting a recent bugfix[2] that reduces
the hit rate from a single vm.
Github counts the number of requests from an ip address, so multiple
vms or users doing builds from the same ip address can trigger the
rate limit ... the rate limit is an hourly rate and is 60
unauthenticated requests per hour ... the limit is 5000 authenticate
requests per hour.
You can arrange to use authenticated requests for the tag requests
by setting the username and password for your github account in the
image:
MCGitHubRepository
siteUsername: 'github user name';
sitePassword: 'github password'.
At the moment these are persistent values ... for GemStone I could
make these session temps if that would be more desirable ... Curl
will also use .netrc for getting usernames and passwords, but I
would have to enable that from within MCGitHubRepository and I'm
willing to that for folks if that's what they want ...
You can avoid hitting github completely if you clone the Seaside3
repository to your local disk and use a Metacello lock. This is
actually the preferred solution, since it bypasses all network
access and you can decide when and if you want to use a new Seaside
release ... something that I think you'd want to do for a production
application .... You do need to use the Scripting API when doing
loads for the the locks to take effect ...
If you need more information about using locks, perhaps Johan can
share his technique ... I've got pretty extensive support for this
in the upcoming tODE release as well ...

WTF....
I am uploading my ConfigurationOfMyApp and I get this
error:
a UserDefinedError occurred (error 2318), reason:halt,
Error accessing tags for github project:
'GsDevKit/gsApplicationTools' -> 'API rate limit exceeded
for 181.169.239.141. (But here''s the good news: Authenticated
requests get a higher rate limit. Check out the documentation
for more details.)'
This seems related to the tagging of 3.1.4.1 Seaside
release we did the other day?
How can I workaround this from within Metacello?
Thanks in adbance
