Currently we have no way to integrate with GitHub Apps to allow for checking out of GitHub repositories. This means we need to use a full fledged GitHub account with a personal-access-token which can be a security risk as the account would only be used for Seqera Tower. This also makes us burn an organization wide account seat because of this limitation. We do not want to tie this access to a single user as we then have to update the GitHub access token after the person leaves.

Please add support for GitHub Apps to checkout repositories instead of a full GitHub account + personal-access-token.
