GitHub Enterprise Server is constantly improving, with new functionality and bug fixes introduced through feature and patch releases. See About upgrades to new releases.
Releases of GitHub Enterprise Server
GitHub supports the four most recent feature releases.
We provide documentation for both supported and unsupported versions of GitHub Enterprise Server. We do not maintain or update the documentation for unsupported versions.

Recommended CodeQL CLI versions for code scanning
For instances with a GitHub Advanced Security license and code scanning enabled, the CodeQL action for code scanning analysis uses a minimum recommended version of the CodeQL CLI by default.
If you run analysis in an external CI system, we recommend using the same version of the CodeQL CLI. See Configuring code scanning for your appliance.

Minimum GitHub Actions Runner application versions
For instances with GitHub Actions enabled, self-hosted GitHub Actions runners must run a minimum required version of the GitHub Actions Runner application.
- For most instances, the Runner application is updated automatically.
- If your instance uses ephemeral self-hosted runners and you've disabled automatic updates, you must upgrade your runners before upgrading GitHub Enterprise Server. See About self-hosted runners.
