i want to push a .zip file on github using python code or API, but in doing so with some resources which i found on stackoverflow, the file is being pushed but the data pushed is corrupted and cannot be retrieved back.

Tried this, How do I push new files to GitHub?

with the help of PyGithub , You Can Use this Snippet:

import base64
now = datetime.datetime.now()
# read binary file and convert it to ascii code using base64 library
data = base64.b64encode(open(file_name, "rb").read())
path = "{}/{}/{}".format(now.year, now.month, "tweets.zip")
# pygithub needs string for creating blob so we decode binary data to utf-8 to be parsed correctly
blob = repo.create_git_blob(data.decode("utf-8"), "base64")
element = InputGitTreeElement(path=path, mode='100644', type='blob', sha=blob.sha)
element_list.append(element)
tree = repo.create_git_tree(element_list, base_tree)
parent = repo.get_git_commit(master_sha)
commit = repo.create_git_commit("commit_message", tree, [parent])
master_ref.edit(commit.sha)```
