+"""
+An example of caching [GitHub API](https://docs.github.com/en/rest) requests with
+[PyGithub](https://github.com/PyGithub/PyGithub).
+
+This example demonstrates the following features:
+* {ref}`patching`: PyGithub uses `requests`, but the session it uses is not easily accessible.
+  In this case, using {py:func}`.install_cache` is the easiest approach.
+* {ref}`URL Patterns <url-filtering>`: Since we're using patching, this example adds an optional
+  safety measure to avoid unintentionally caching any non-Github requests elsewhere in your code.
+* {ref}`cache-control`: The GitHub API provides `Cache-Control` headers, so we can use those to set
+  expiration.
+* {ref}`conditional-requests`: The GitHub API also supports conditional requests. Even after
+  responses expire, we can still make use of the cache until the remote content actually changes.
+* [Rate limiting](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/overview/resources-in-the-rest-api#rate-limiting):
+  The GitHub API is rate-limited at 5000 requests per hour if authenticated, or only 60 requests per
+  hour otherwise. This makes caching especially useful, because cache hits and `304 Not Modified`
+  responses (from conditional requests) are not counted against the rate limit.
+* {ref}`inspection`: After calling some PyGithub functions, we can take a look at the cache contents
+  to see the actual API requests that were sent.
+* {ref}`Security <default-filter-params>`: If you use a
+  [personal access token](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/creating-a-personal-access-token),
+  it will be sent to the GitHub API via the `Authorization` header. This is not something you want
+  to store in the cache if your storage backend is unsecured, so `Authorization` and other common
+  auth headers/params are redacted by default. This example shows how to verify this.
