Single sources content from a public GitHub repository Markdown file.
{{% github-source "org/repo" %}}
{{% github-source "org/repo" "path/to/file" %}}
The shortcode takes one positional argument for the user/organization and repository names such as digitalocean/sample-html. It takes an optional second positional argument for a filename like some-directory/some-markdown-file.md, but defaults to README.md.
This shortcode adds a preface at the beginning of the content which says:
This page is automatically generated from [URL].
For local development, set an environment variable called GH_TOKEN to a read-only GitHub access token. Without this token, this shortcode will use the unauthenticated GitHub API, which will work but has a low rate limit which you’re likely to hit.
