I'm unsure what you mean by passing in the auto_pagination option since that seems to be something that's configured when creating a new GitHub instance, e.g.,

github = GitHub.new do |config|
  config.auto_pagination = true
end
github.repos.contributors 'rails', 'rails'

Frankly though, I would suggest using the official GitHub API gem -- octokit.rb. It does the pagination work for you and intelligently knows when it can bump the number of items per page to 100.
