+This  demo shows interacting with the Github API via Invoke-RestMethod.
+NOTE: A repo URL must be specified in these scripts and a Github PAT token with access to the repo must be generated and specified
+
+rest.ps1:
+Invoke-RestMethod is used to get the json of a repo as a PowerShell object,
+the object is then manipulated and the "private" parameter is changed to 'false'.
+The object is converted back to json formating and Posted back to the repo API
+
+The benefit of PS is shown at the end of the script with PS objects.
+Enabling users to get info on multiple repos and then sort that data as objects.
