You can create a personal access token and use it instead of the password. For example when setting the iceberg credentials. So, I think there's no problem per se.

Hi @Ducasse,

You recently used a password to access an endpoint through the GitHub API using Zinc HTTP Components 1.0 (Pharo/9.0). We will deprecate basic authentication using password to this endpoint soon:

https://api.github.com/repositories/169849137

We recommend using a personal access token (PAT) with the appropriate scope to access this endpoint instead. Visit��https://github.com/settings/tokens��for more information.

Thanks,
The GitHub Team
