This change adds support for private github FuseSoC core repositories.
To test out on a linux installation:
~/.netrcwith the format below. NOTE: The file permissions MUST be 600 for the .netrc file or it will not be used.Example
~/.netrcfile format:A new token can be created in github at Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens. I've only tested with the classic github token type and the only scope necessary is the
repocheckbox and it's children.This change does not introduce any new dependencies for FuseSoC, does not introduce or modify any flags, and should be transparent (used when .netrc with 600 permissions is available and the github.com machine is present in the .netrc file, ignored otherwise).
