* Description
*This layer is deprecated*.

The layer had support searching for and cloning [[http://github.com][GitHub]] repositories,
although that did not provide a secure way to store an access token
to connect to GitHub.

The git layer provides interaction with GitHub and can securely
store the access token using PGP.
