Troubleshooting "Github Your access to this site has been restricted" Error with Go Http Client

Issue Overview

When using Go's http client to retrieve files from Github, some users may encounter a 403 error accompanied by the message "Your access to this site has been restricted."

Possible Causes and Solution

In this particular case, the issue was resolved by ensuring that the following components were up-to-date:

• IDE: IntelliJ IDEA
• Git Version: Ensure you have the latest version of Git installed.

Updating IntelliJ IDEA and Git

To update these components in IntelliJ IDEA:

1. Update IntelliJ IDEA: Go to "Help" -> "Check for Updates."
2. Update Git: Go to "Settings" -> "Version Control" -> "Git" -> "Update Now."

Example Code

The following code should now work as expected:

<code class="go">package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "io/ioutil"
    "net/http"
)

func main() {
    endpoint := "https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/archive/v1.0.2.tar.gz"

    resp, err := http.Get(endpoint)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Printf("[error] %v\n", err)
        return
    }
    defer resp.Body.Close()

    respData, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Printf("[error] %v\n", err)
        return
    }

    fmt.Printf("Resp:\n%v\n", string(respData))
}</code>
