Description
Is it possible to use basic auth with 2FA enabled on the user account? And if so, could someone provide me some brief sample code? I've tried adding a token field, but did not work. Got the "Bad Credentials" response from the API.
```
let github = new GitHub({
apiUrl: '**enterprise API endpoint here**',
username: parameter.username,
password: parameter.password,
token: parameter.token,
auth: 'basic'
});
let user = github.getUser();
```
