We're replacing egit-github with jcabi-github.

  • egit-github
    • is somewhat abandoned
      • Its activity level is low
      • Code contributions don't tend to be reviewed promptly
      • It's using relatively outdated versions of some library dependencies
    • has extra Eclipse-related bureaucracy
    • Being usable outside of Eclipse doesn't seem to be much of a priority
  • jcabi-github
    • responds fairly quickly to pull requests
    • is meant to be used as an independent library
    • has a decent (though incomplete) mocking feature to make unit tests possible

They're both somewhat incomplete with respect to all the current features of GitHub's API; such is life.
