Branch protection in GitHub

#github  #security 

As announced previously, we have enabled GitHub Organization Rulesets to protect the default branch across all our repositories. This ensures a safer and more structured way of working together, while still allowing you to contribute. Here is what changed:

What changed

  • Default branch protection: The main/master branch is now protected against direct pushes across all repositories. Changes must go through Pull Requests, enforcing the 4-eye principle as part of our security policies.

What this means for you

  • You can still contribute by opening Pull Requests against the default branch.
  • We are available to review your work and, where needed, apply it through Atlantis.
  • If you would like more freedom to apply changes yourself while staying within safe boundaries, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
