Normally in order to retrieve all repositories a user has interacted with, one should query the GitHub Events API. Unfortunately it returns only the last 90 days, so we don't use it.
Instead we noticed that the "Contribution Activity" on the profile pages queries such URLs in the background:
- https://github.com/users/AurelienLourot/created_commits?from=2018-05-17&to=2018-05-17
- https://github.com/users/AurelienLourot/created_repositories?from=2018-05-17&to=2018-05-17
- https://github.com/users/AurelienLourot/created_pull_requests?from=2018-05-17&to=2018-05-17
- https://github.com/users/AurelienLourot/created_pull_request_reviews?from=2018-05-17&to=2018-05-17
So we're doing the same :)
We hit a rate limit. And since it's not an official API, we can't use a token to raise the limit.
Yes, it is since that interface isn't public. We're monitoring it and will react as fast as we can when it breaks.

- GitHub-contributions: uses a different technique. It fetches all the user's pull requests from the official API. This is clever but will miss the repos to which the user has pushed directly without pull request.
- gharchive.org: records all GitHub events for all users. In theory it should be possible to replace our implementation by queries to this huge database.
