It&rsquo;s often useful for automating tasks through scripts or for creating installer CLIs. The GitHub public API provides this information, so you&rsquo;ll get it using your shell. Define the repository in the REPO environment variable. This way it will be easier for you to try other repositories later. REPO='kubernetes/kubernetes' Now use curl to issue a request to the GitHub REST API.
