Description
The What: Added Bearer authentication example to the
examples/
directory and updated Readme to add Bearer (PAT's) to the list of support authentication schemes.The Why: Our team uses Personal Access Tokens to authenticate our external apps. I thought I was not able to use the go-jira library because it wasn't apparent from the README that Bearer was a supported authentication scheme. It was serendipitous that I went into the code and saw the section for Bearer Auth (added in this commit ) that I realized we could indeed use the go-jira Jira Client for our apps.
