About labels

You can manage your work on GitHub Enterprise Server by creating labels to categorize issues and pull requests. You can apply labels in the repository the label was created in. Once a label exists, you can use the label on any issue or pull request within that repository.

About default labels

GitHub Enterprise Server provides default labels in every new repository. You can use these default labels to help create a standard workflow in a repository.

Label	Description
bug	Indicates an unexpected problem or unintended behavior
documentation	Indicates a need for improvements or additions to documentation
duplicate	Indicates similar issues or pull requests
enhancement	Indicates new feature requests
good first issue	Indicates a good issue for first-time contributors
help wanted	Indicates that a maintainer wants help on an issue or pull request
invalid	Indicates that an issue or pull request is no longer relevant
question	Indicates that an issue or pull request needs more information
wontfix	Indicates that work won't continue on an issue or pull request

Default labels are included in every new repository when the repository is created, but you can edit or delete the labels later.

Issues with the good first issue label are used to populate the repository's contribute page. For an example of a contribute page, see github/docs/contribute.

Organization owners can customize the default labels for repositories in their organization. For more information, see "Managing default labels for repositories in your organization."
