About access permissions on GitHub
Para executar qualquer ação no GitHub, como criar uma solicitação de pull em um repositório ou alterar as configurações de cobrança de uma organização, uma pessoa precisa ter acesso suficiente na conta ou no recurso relevante. Esse acesso é controlado por permissões. Uma permissão é a capacidade de executar uma ação específica. Por exemplo, a capacidade de excluir um problema é uma permissão. Uma função é um conjunto de permissões que você pode atribuir a pessoas ou equipes.
Roles work differently for different types of accounts. For more information about accounts, see Tipos de contas do GitHub.
Personal accounts
A repository owned by a personal account has two permission levels: the repository owner and collaborators. See Níveis de permissão para um repositório da conta pessoal.
Organization accounts
Organization members can have owner, billing manager, or member roles. Owners have complete administrative access to your organization, while billing managers can manage billing settings. Member is the default role for everyone else. You can manage access permissions for multiple members at a time with teams. For more information, see:
Enterprise accounts
Enterprise owners have ultimate power over the enterprise account and can take every action in the enterprise account. Billing managers can manage your enterprise account's billing settings. Members and outside collaborators of organizations owned by your enterprise account are automatically members of the enterprise account, although they have no access to the enterprise account itself or its settings.
Enterprise owners cannot access organization content or repositories unless they are explicitly granted a role in the organization. However, enterprise owners can manage enterprise settings and policies that impact an organization in the enterprise. For more information, see Funções em uma empresa.
If an enterprise uses Enterprise Managed Users, members are provisioned as new personal accounts on GitHub and are fully managed by the identity provider. The contas de usuário gerenciadas have read-only access to repositories that are not a part of their enterprise and cannot interact with users that are not also members of the enterprise. Within the organizations owned by the enterprise, the contas de usuário gerenciadas can be granted the same granular access levels available for regular organizations. For more information, see Sobre os Enterprise Managed Users.
