- If github doesn't give you an email, you can put in a place holder email instead.
- Then check post that, a session will be created for that user automatically.
- In the session, you can put info signifying that the user needs to input an email, and then make your frontend route to a UI that asks them for their email.
- Once their enter their email, you can associate that to the github account and mark the email as unverified which should then trigger an email verification flow.

IsVerifiedr

A mistake from my side, just changing the email marks it as unverified by default. The isVerified boolean in the function i mentioned was used previously but then we removed it from the API cause we wanted to decouple the social login functions from the email verificaiton functions. We still need to update the function signature.
