   "However, is it possible to disable the timeout exception" - Can you tell me how to do this? The github uploader is working fine for me, unless it takes more than a couple of minutes to upload the file (the HTTPClient::SessionManager#send_timeout seems to default to 120s, but I'm lost as to how to change that from outside).

   Oops, ignore me, I was going about it entirely backwards!

   Instead of HTTPClient.post(...) when uploading, I needed to edit the script to use:

   client = HTTPClient.new
   client.send_timeout = 60 * 60 # Hour is enough, even if 2 minutes isn't. I get 2MB/minute, which limited me to < 4MB upload.
   client.post(...)
