Java API for GitHub
Role in this project:Back-end Developer
Back-end DeveloperContributions:4 reviews, 7 commits, 1 PR in 7 days
Contributions summary:Tobias focused on refactoring and improving the `GHRelease` class within the GitHub API Java library. They implemented caching for asset retrieval, introducing methods like `getCachedAssets()` and `listAssets()` for more efficient access. The user also made changes to ensure backwards compatibility by deprecating the old `getAssets()` method and renaming it to `listAssets()`, preparing for a transition to the cached assets behavior. Furthermore, they improved code formatting.
