Make the initial post to GitHub API using actual file contents.

[mbostock]

Currently we make a placeholder post ({".gistup": "gistup"}) but it would be nice to avoid potential caching issues by posting the actual file contents.

Can you describe the behavior of the caching issue -- I may be experiencing the same.

I'm having an issue where the placeholder gets posted to github but it never gets updated with the actual file I'm looking to post. Within the command line, it appears to get hung -- I have to Ctrl-C to interrupt.

I'll be glad to work on the issue and submit a PR if you could point me in a direction to get started.

This #22 (comment) might be of help here

Best place to start idk but these links might help 9c21a5d5b4/gistup#L141
and
9c21a5d5b4/gistup#L162

So this works in Windows (MinGW at least) https://github.com/CrandellWS/gistup/tree/7535e084b109b70212ae2c5fed23635306343656

you can create a blank repo gistup or add a filelist gistup file1 file2 file3 but the files with spaces errors... and gistup ./* gistup * works

[CrandellWS]

file with spaces in name catch around??
