Stephen Connolly commented on JENKINS-36121   Re: Github Branch Source plugin trips api rate limit OK... Very experimental trial... use at your own risk. BACKUP EVERYTHING IMPORTANT TO YOU BEFORE INSTALLING You will need: 1. Updated snapshot of cloudbee-folder 2. Updated snapshot of branch-api 3. Updated snapshot of github-api 4. Updated snapshot of github-branch-source You will get: Log messages like this: Started by user anonymous Consulting GitHub Organization Connecting to https://api.github.com with no credentials, anonymous access API Rate Limit 60 with 0 remaining API Rate Limit 60 with 0 remaining, sleeping until Mon Feb 20 18:15:22 GMT 2017 I have not put the rate limit guards on every code path, so you may still end up tripping the rate limits, but the primary important paths all have the rate limit guards, so you should have your scan complete eventually. If another plugin is also using the same credentials, they will not be paying any attention to the branch source's needs and hence may cause the rate limit to trip anyway... but most people should not hit the limits (though an anonymous scan of even reasonable sized organizations will take hours 60 requests per hour is not much!) cloudbees-folder.hpi branch-api.hpi github-api.hpi github-branch-source.hpi Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.1.7#71011-sha1:2526d7c) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Issues" group.
