- Non-blocking: the exported type documentation says this transport only handles cloud requests, but
RoundTripalso pins GHES requests to the compatibility version. Include GHES so the documented public behavior matches the implementation.
// APIVersionTransport sets the GitHub REST API version on requests to
// GitHub.com and GitHub Enterprise Cloud.

Summary
2026-03-10for GitHub.com and GitHub Enterprise Cloud2022-11-28API versionassigneefield from issue and pull-request search field schemasWhy
go-githubv89 supports the 2026-03-10 API contract but still defaults generated requests to2022-11-28. The scope probe and GitHub App token exchange also hardcoded the older version, so GitHub.com and GHEC were not consistently opting into the new contract.GHES releases support REST API versions independently. Keeping GHES on
2022-11-28preserves compatibility with supported releases before GHES 3.21 while allowing cloud deployments to migrate.Closes #3037.
