========================================== ==============================================

- ``github3.login`` has been simplified and split into two functions:

- ``github3.login`` serves the majority use case and only provides an
authenticated ``GitHub`` object.

- ``github3.enterprise_login`` allows GitHub Enterprise users to log into
their service.

- ``GitHub#iter_followers`` was split into two functions:

- ``GitHub#followers_of`` which iterates over all of the followers of a user
whose username you provide

- ``GitHub#followers`` which iterates over all of the followers of the
authenticated user

- ``GitHub#iter_following`` was split into two functions:

- ``GitHub#followed_by`` which iterates over all of the users followed by
the username you provide

- ``GitHub#following`` which iterates over all of the users followed by the
authenticated user

- ``GitHub#iter_gists`` was split into three functions:

- ``GitHub#public_gists`` which iterates over all of the public gists on
GitHub

- ``GitHub#gists_for`` which iterates over all the public gists of a
specific user

- ``GitHub#gists`` which iterates over the authenticated users gists

- ``GitHub#iter_orgs`` was split into two functions:

- ``GitHub#organizations`` which iterates over the authenticated user's
organization memberships

- ``GitHub#organizations_with`` which iterates over the given user's
organization memberships

- ``GitHub#iter_subscriptions`` was split into two functions:

- ``GitHub#subscriptions_for`` which iterates over an arbitrary user's
subscriptions

- ``GitHub#subscriptions`` which iterates over the authenticated user's
subscriptions

- ``GitHub#iter_starred`` was split into two functions:

- ``GitHub#starred_by`` which iterates over an arbitrary user's stars

- ``GitHub#starred`` which iterates over the authenticated user's stars

- ``GitHub#user`` was split into two functions:

- ``GitHub#user`` which retrieves an arbitrary user's information

- ``GitHub#me`` which retrieves the authenticated user's information

- ``GitHub#update_user`` has been renamed to ``GitHub#update_me`` and only
uses 1 API call now. It was renamed to reflect the addition of
``GitHub#me``.

- The legacy watching API has been removed:

- ``GitHub#subscribe``

- ``GitHub#unsubscribe``

- ``GitHub#is_subscribed``

- ``GitHub#create_repo`` was renamed to ``GitHub#create_repository``

- ``GitHub#delete_key`` was removed. To delete a key retrieve it with
``GitHub#key`` and then call ``Key#delete``.

- ``Repository#set_subscription`` was split into two simpler functions

- ``Repository#subscribe`` subscribes the authenticated user to the
repository's notifications

- ``Repository#ignore`` ignores notifications from the repository for the
authenticated user

- ``Repository#contents`` was split into two simpler functions

- ``Repository#file_contents`` returns the contents of a file object

- ``Repository#directory_contents`` returns the contents of files in a
directory.

- ``Organization#add_repo`` and ``Team#add_repo`` have been renamed to
``Organization#add_repository`` and ``Team#add_repository`` respectively.

- ``Organization#create_repo`` has been renamed to
``Organization#create_repository``. It no longer accepts ``has_downloads``.
It now accepts ``license_template``.

- ``Organization#remove_repo`` has been renamed to
``Organization#remove_repository``. It now accepts ``team_id`` instead of
``team``.

- ``github3.ratelimit_remaining`` was removed

- ``GitHub`` instances can no longer be used as context managers

- The pull request API has changed.

- The ``links`` attribute now contains the raw ``_links`` attribute from the
API.

- The ``merge_commit_sha`` attribute has been removed since it was deprecated
in the GitHub API.

- To present a more consistent universal API, certain attributes have been
renamed.

=============================== ==========================
Old name New attribute name
=============================== ==========================
``PullFile.additions`` ``additions_count``
``PullFile.deletions`` ``deletions_count``
``PullFile.changes`` ``changes_count``
``PullRequest.additions`` ``additions_count``
``PullRequest.comments`` ``comments_count``
``PullRequest.commits`` ``commits_count``
``PullRequest.deletions`` ``deletions_count``
``PullRequest.review_comments`` ``review_comments_count``
=============================== ==========================

- The Gist API has changed.

- The ``forks`` and ``files`` attributes that used to keep count of the
number of ``forks`` and ``files`` have been **removed**.

- The ``comments`` attribute which provided the number of comments on a
gist, has been **renamed** to ``comments_count``.

- The ``is_public`` method has been removed since it just returned the
``Gist.public`` attribute.

- Most instances of ``login`` as a parameter have been changed to ``username``
for clarity and consistency. This affects the following methods:

- ``github3.authorize``
- ``github3.repositories_by``
- ``github3.user``
- ``GitHub``
- ``GitHub#authorize``
- ``GitHub#follow``
- ``GitHub#is_following``
- ``GitHub#is_starred``
- ``GitHub#issue``
- ``GitHub#followers_of``
- ``GitHub#followed_by``
- ``GitHub#gists_by``
- ``GitHub#issues_on``
- ``GitHub#organizations_with``
- ``GitHub#starred_by``
- ``GitHub#subscriptions_for``
- ``GitHub#user``
- ``GitHubEnterprise``
- ``Issue#assign``
- ``Organization#add_member``
- ``Organization#is_member``
- ``Organization#is_public_member``
- ``Organization#remove_member``
- ``Repository#add_collaborator``
- ``Repository#is_assignee``
- ``Repository#is_collaborator``
- ``Repository#remove_collaborator``
- ``Team#add_member``
- ``Team#is_member``
- ``User#is_assignee_on``
- ``User#is_following``

- ``Repository.stargazers`` is now ``Repository.stargazers_count`` (conforming
with the attribute name returned by the API).


- The ``Issue`` API has changed in order to provide a more consistent attribute
API. ``Issue.comments`` is now ``Issue.comments_count`` and returns the
number of comments on an issue.

- The ``Issue.labels`` attribute has also been renamed. It is now available from
``Issue.original_labels``. This will provide the user with the list of
``Label`` objects that was returned by the API. To retrieve an updated list
of labels, the user can now use ``Issue#labels``, e.g.

::

i = github3.issue('sigmavirus24', 'github3.py', 30)
labels = list(i.labels())

- The ``Organization`` and ``User`` APIs have changed to become more
consistent with the rest of the library and GitHub API. The following
attribute names have been changed

=============================== ==========================
Old name New attribute name
=============================== ==========================
``Organization.followers`` ``followers_count``
``Organization.following`` ``following_count``
``Organization.public_repos`` ``public_repos_count``
``User.followers`` ``followers_count``
``User.following`` ``following_count``
``User.public_repos`` ``public_repos_count``
=============================== ==========================

- The ``Release.assets`` attribute has been renamed to
``Release.original_assets``. To retrieve up-to-date assets, use the
``Release#assets`` method.

- The ``Authorization`` API has changed. The ``update`` method has been split
into three methods: ``add_scopes``, ``remove_scopes``, ``replace_scopes``.
This highlights the fact that ``Authorization#update`` used to require more
than one request.

- ``Event#is_public`` has been removed. Simply check the event's ``public``
attribute instead.

- ``Repository#delete_file`` and ``Repository#update_file`` have been removed.
Simply delete or update a file using the Contents API.

- ``Content#delete`` now returns a dictionary that matches the JSON returned
by the API. It contains the Contents and the Commit associated with the
deletion.

- ``Content#update`` now returns a dictionary that matches the JSON returned
by the API. It contains the Contents and the Commit associated with the
deletion.

- ``Issue.pull_request`` has been renamed to ``Issue.pull_request_urls``

New Features
````````````

- Most objects now have a ``session`` attribute. This is a subclass of a
``Session`` object from ``requests``. This can now be used in conjunction
with a third-party caching mechanism. The suggested caching library is
``cachecontrol``.

- All object's ``url`` attribute are now available.

- You can now retrieve a repository by its id with
``GitHub#repository_with_id``.

- You can call the ``pull_request`` method on an ``Issue`` now to retrieve the
associated pull request::

import github3

i = github3.issue('sigmavirus24', 'github3.py', 301)
pr = i.pull_request()
