Hello, I have a question about running the nextwork, could you give me a suggestion?

The code as the following,

Singularity> nextflow run nextflow/variant_call.nf --ref_dir /tmp/singularity-3.8.0/refrence/ --reads_in1 /tmp/singularity-3.8.0/diyData/1.L350_BDMS190036238-1a_1.fq.clean.gz --reads_in2 /tmp/singularity-3.8.0/diyData/1.L350_BDMS190036238-1a_2.fq.clean.gz --output_dir result --sample_name sample

The output:
N E X T F L O W ~ version 21.10.0
Pulling nextflow-io/nextflow ...
API rate limit exceeded -- Provide your GitHub user name and password to get a higher rate limit

The environment

• Nextflow version: version 21.10.0.5640
• Java version: 17.0.1
• Operating system: Linux

I have confused me some time, I would grateful for you if you can help me, thank you.

After just running into this myself again and forgetting how to do this:

If you use the Github CLI you should be able to gh auth login to set it up.

How did you end up solving this? I have the same issue after logging in with gh.

$ nextflow pull nf-core/ampliseq
