Description
Problem Description
When using the GitHub scraper package in my portfolio project, I noticed discrepancies in the fetched data compared to my actual GitHub profile. Specifically:
- Repository Count: The package reports 40 repositories, while my GitHub profile lists 42.
- Star Count: The package displays 22 stars, though my profile shows 2 stars.
This results in inaccurate data representation, which can affect applications relying on precise GitHub metrics.
