Step 1: I have cloned beat ([https://github.com/elastic/beats](https://github.com/elastic/beats)) and added my custom logic. My custom logic has update in the given file (src\[github.com](http://github.com)\somegithub\iibbeat\beater\iibbeat.go) and I have added new folder(mqsi) with one go file.

```auto
src\github.com\somegithub\iibbeat
   |->mqsi
        |->PullInfo.go

```

then I have committed my changes  
Step 2:

```auto
git add --all
git commit

```

Step 3:  
executed `mage build` this resulted me with below prompt

[machineuser@mymachine iibbeat]$ mage build  
Username for '[https://github.com](https://github.com)':

My query is I could not use github from my organization machine.  
How can I avoid git hub (Public/Private) for my custom beat build and testing ?

Note : I am able to build and run the custom beat without my custom logic. When there is no custom logic, `mage build` command is not prompting me for the git username.
