Commit an image to a gist

[blurymind]

Can we replicate this in javascript?

When I try to write it with gist.update(...), I get a bunch of binary garbage uploaded.

I can however commit images to github with {encode: false}. Can a similar parameter be passed to gist.update?

could perhaps setting a custom media type do it?
https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reference/gists#custom-media-types-for-gists

can this library even do it and if so where?

or maybe commit it from cache, after putting it there with the filesystem api?
