Administrator designation
In your agency’s GitHub repository:
- You must designate a GitHub Administrator(s)(primary and alternate) to access and maintain their GitHub source code repository.
- Each GitHub Administrator must maintain a departmental log-in credential (username, password).
- The Agency/state GitHub Administrator has the ability to grant permissions to other GitHub users.
- Any GitHub user that has been granted permissions to the GitHub source repository must be employed by the Agency/ state Entity or contracted by the Agency/state entity.
- GitHub Administrator Username should be a generic representation of the Agency/ state entity, not a specific employee (i.e., CADeptofTechnology, CAFranchiseTaxBoard).
