Disallow update checker delaying the gh process#6978
Merged
Conversation
This ensures that checking for newer versions of gh happens in the background of the main operation that the user requested, and that when that operation is completed, the gh process should immediately exit without being delayed by the update checker goroutine.

@mislav Do you think it makes sense to introduce a new function RESTWithContext similar to QueryWithContext to the api.Client so that we don't need to go through the steps of creating a gh.RESTClient?

I'm fine with switching to gh.RESTClient; I'd rather not be extending api.Client with any new functionality and instead deprecate api.Client altogether

With rearranging this code so cmdFactory is created above the checkForUpdate we can now inject the api client from the factory if we wanted to.
