What to do

GitHub returned 429

upstream.rate_limit

Personal tokens get 60 req/hr unauthenticated and 5000/hr authenticated. App tokens get 5000/hr.

Wait the retry window (60–1300s) and re-run

upstream.rate_limit

Personal tokens get 60 req/hr unauthenticated and 5000/hr authenticated. App tokens get 5000/hr.

Use a token with higher rate-limit budget (GH Apps get 5000/hr vs personal 60/hr)
