Exposes the rate limit header responses so that consumers of the API can proactively tune their usage

I guess you far away from good gh integration, so soon you will get #303 |

I am sorry, but what the crazy calculation do you do here?
hour - value in second
System.currentTimeMillis() - return millisecond
(millisecond + second)/ 1000L - strange unpredictable type of second, we can say this type of seconds as X.
By javadoc:
public Date(long date)
date the milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT.
if we will use new Date( X ), then we can't predict what type of date we will receive.

with this new code you broke reset time

Ha! Read the comment in GHRateLimit... for crazy reasons that class stores the date in Date with seconds expressed as milliseconds.
Without this fixup the reset date will be incorrect as returned by GHRateLimit.getResetDate()
I have comments indicating that it be madness... but actually is the fix if least harm

Ack the adding of an hours seconds should be outside of the division, but this will still give a result in the future for GHE and as GHE does not have a rate limit...

I read about "this is madness, storing the date as seconds in a Date object"
but very confused by the division.

#329 will fix the algebra... but it is not strictly required as a limit of no limit expiring in 3.6 seconds or expiring in 1 h is still a limit of no limit

But without correcting for the 1000 fold factor then GHE would say it had a limit of 1000000 being refreshed on Tue Jun 20 01:41:44 IST 48997 which allows 21 API calls per year... so code that uses the rate limit to pre-throttle will run unnecessarily slow on GHE

Or were you accessing the public field directly (oh how I love the way people make fields public in Java and make migration very difficult without breaking backwards compatibility)

Yes, I agree with this, fixing this madness must doing not in this issue.
