GitHub Docs
Welcome to GitHub Docs! GitHub’s documentation is open source, meaning anyone from inside or outside the company can contribute. For full contributing guidelines, visit our contributing guide .
Quick links by contributor type
*
Hubbers (GitHub employees): See CONTRIBUTING.md in the docs-content repository for GitHub-specific processes.
*
Open source contributors: See CONTRIBUTING.md in the docs repository for a quick-start summary.
How we sync changes across Docs repositories
There are two GitHub Docs repositories:
*
github/docs (public): Open to external contributions
*
github/docs-internal (private): For GitHub employee contributions.
The two repositories sync frequently. Content changes in one are reflected in the other. Hubbers might prefer to post in docs when working with a customer, but docs has limitations on the types of contributions it accepts to safeguard the site and our workflows. Internal contributions should usually go to docs-internal .
Important: The docs repository accepts contributions to content files ( .md files in /content and select /data sections like reusables only). Infrastructure files, workflows, and site-building code are not open for external modification.
New to contributing
Here are some resources to help you get started with open source contributions:
* Finding ways to contribute to open source on GitHub
