edit description fails with `byte-code: Invalid slot type: gh-gist-gist, id, string, nil`

[stig]

Creating gist worked beautifully, but attempting to edit the description from the gist-list did not work. I'm getting this sequence of messages:

Contacting host: api.github.com:443

My Emacs:

GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0, NS apple-appkit-1265.21) of 2015-04-10 on builder10-9.porkrind.org

I just installed gist.el from melpa today (version 20150906.954).

Same here. Emacs 24.4.1. Just installed gist.el a few minutes ago.

[kanubacode]

Same here as well.

This same error is happening with gist-mode-write-file.

Looks like I found the bug in gh-gist.el; see sigma/gh.el#64 and #77.

@rothmichaels
I still got this issue when doing gist-edit-current-description...

[rothmichaels]

@zilongshanren I wonder if this relates to the version of gh.el or Emacs.

Are you trying this from a gist buffer or the github:gists buffer? gist-edit-current-description works for me when used from github:gists (if I call it from a gist buffer, I get the error user-error: Can't edit a gist that doesn't belong to you).

I am using:

• Emacs.app (from MacPorts): GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin15.4.0, NS apple-appkit-1404.46)
