GitHub Admins have more permissions on GitHub than normal contributors. There are
|
|
|
|
a few responsibilities that come with that increased power.

Add and Remove Committers

The Ansible Team will periodically review who is actively contributing to Ansible to grant or revoke
|
|
|
|
contributors' ability to commit on their own. GitHub Admins are the people who have the power to
|
|
|
|
actually manage the GitHub permissions.

When we make releases we make people go through a :ref:`release_managers` to push commits to that

branch. The GitHub admins are responsible for setting the branch so only the Release Manager can
|
|
|
|
commit to the branch when the release process reaches that stage and later opening the branch once
|
|
|
|
the release has been made. The Release manager will let the GitHub Admin know when this needs to be
|
|
|
|
done.
