Not being a developer, I have limited uderstanding of PATs and global
git options, but here is what I was able to cobble together to start
looking at my situation:
> Sys.getenv("GITHUB_PAT")
[1] ""
> Sys.unsetenv("GITHUB_PAT")
> Sys.getenv("GITHUB_PAT")
[1] ""
> devtools::install_github("DillonHammill/CytoExploreRData")
Using GitHub PAT from the git credential store.

I'm not sure where I go from here. Any hints on what other diagnostics
are useful?

My guess is that this is related to you saving an expired Personal Access Token
in your global git options or credentials store? Git is perfectly capable of
using per-repo credentials... don't configure a credential in your global
configuration and it won't fall back on using it to access random new
repositories.

I am trying to install a package from github which has worked fine in the past,
but now seems to be stuck on some new authentication issues. Does anyone know
how I can straighten myself out? In theory, this is a public repository so I'm
not sure why I even need authenticating for installation.
Thanks,
Rob
