cake-github is a cake plugin for providing an interface to the github API from your command-line.
Have you ever wanted to create a new Github repository immediately after creating your project without having to switch to your web browser and navigate to github.com to do so? This might be useful for you.
The plugin will provide an interface to all, or most of the API. You'll be able to create, delete, search, and modify repositories, all from your terminal with cake.
So, what does this have over the official Github command-line tool? Well, it's integrated with cake and written in Clojure. Mostly the integrated with cake part that matters. If you're already using cake, you've got everything you need. Just add this plugin to your global project and off you go.
All commands are structured as two segments. The first being the 'category' of the API call, and the second being the actual command. Here is an example:

There are commands for doing all sorts of stuff that you typically do through the Github website.

The whole thing is just a cake plugin. You'll want to be able to use it outside of a project, so you'll want to add the plugin to the :dev-dependencies in ~/.cake/project.clj. You'll also need to add a :tasks key with the value [cake-github.tasks]. After that, do cake deps --global, and you should be all set.
