      public abstract void onError(@Nonnull GitHubConnectorResponse connectorResponse) throws IOException
      Called when the library encounters HTTP error indicating that the API rate limit has been exceeded.

      Any exception thrown from this method will cause the request to fail, and the caller of github-api will receive an exception. If this method returns normally, another request will be attempted. For that to make sense, the implementation needs to wait for some time.

      Parameters:
      connectorResponse - Response information for this request.
      Throws:
      IOException - the io exception
