Example

<github_upload username='your_username'
                        password='your_password'
                        repository='your_repo'
                        file='/path/to/file.tar.bz2' />

<github_upload username='${github_username}'
                        password='${github_password}'
                        repository='your_repo'
                        file='${file}' />

Recommendations

It is highly recommended to use a password property task to prompt the user for the password instead of just writing it in the xml config file. Both ways are ok though.
