About access control for GitHub Pages sites
If your project site is published from a private or internal repository that's owned by an organization using GitHub Enterprise Cloud, you can manage access control for the site. With access control, you can choose to publish the site publicly to anyone on the internet or privately to people with read access to your repository. A privately published site can be used to share your internal documentation or knowledge base with members of your enterprise. You cannot manage access control for an organization site. For more information about the types of GitHub Pages sites, see "About GitHub Pages."
Privately published sites are available at a different subdomain than publicly published sites. You can see your site's URL in the repository settings. If you're using a static site generator configured to build the site with the repository name as a path, you may need to update the settings for the static site generator when changing the site to private. For more information, see "Configuring Jekyll in your GitHub Pages site" or the documentation for your static site generator.
