Integrates github with your Rocket.Chat server.

Features:

• Webhook - exposes an endpoint that can receive and parse GitHub notifications (only push events at this time)
• Auto-install on Repo - With the slashcommand /github connect the app automatically links your server to the desired repo (you have to configure your github personal access token for that)

When you run the /github connect command, only the current channel/private group/discussion will receive notifications from GitHub.

Make sure the user rocket.cat is able to send messages in the channel/private group/discussion you want to be notified.

This app has been developed during our webinars series. You can see how it evolves from example to example by checking the step-* branches.

The changes from the latest step are likely to be the ones on the master branch.
