afaik the github app doesn't include that feature yet, you would need to use the browser on phone to do the same

@isabelcosta @epicadk for this there will be a need to create an OAuth app on Github that will give me client secret and client id which I can create for now from my acc but later the org acc will need to do the same
Is that alright?

Is this issue still open, can I work on this? I've experience with implementing OAuth2 in NodeJS & Flask.
