Make the GitHub Plugin Robust

This issue has been an active pain point for at least a year, and has been near the top of my mind that whole time. However, I have not seriously prioritized it, and am still not prioritizing it. Basically, I want to focus on making the CredSperiment a big success (see: deep before wide).

You can think of prioritizing the CredSperiment over external users as being like putting on our oxygen mask before others’. Basically, for any feature within SourceCred, having a high-performing and well-rewarded core community around SourceCred will make that feature easier to ship, because we’ll have more resources. Hence, I’m focused on features that improve SourceCred’s internal ability to coordinate and execute.

That said, I do think this is a very important issue, and if anyone else feels called to start working on it, I encourage them. As soon as I get the ability to put my cred where my mouth is via initiative bounties, I’ll give this one a hefty cred bounty.
