Secret scanning’s push protection is available on public repositories, for free

Secret scanning's push protection feature is now generally available for all free public repositories on GitHub.com.

You can enable push protection for any public repository on GitHub.com from your repository's "Code security and analysis" settings in the UI or REST API. If you're an organization or enterprise owner, you can also also bulk-enable secret scanning.

For your repositories that are not a part of an organization, you can bulk-enable secret scanning and push protection in your personal "Code security and analysis" settings.

Secret scanning's push protection feature is now generally available for GitHub Advanced Security customers.

Customers can enable push protection for any private repository that has GitHub Advanced Security. Push protection can also be enabled for any public repository, for free. To bulk enable push protection, customers can visit their organization and enterprise's "Code security and analysis" settings in the UI or REST APIs.

Push protection is also available for any custom pattern defined at the repository, organization, and enterprise level. See step 11 under "Defining a custom pattern for a repository" for more details in our documentation.

Actions on GitHub Mobile

Actions are coming to your Repositories on GitHub Mobile! Find all your repository's workflows in one convenient place.

Tapping on the new "Actions" row on a Repository now shows you a list of all of the Repository's workflows. Choosing a workflow will show you all of its runs, allowing you to check up on things while on the go. If you want to dig into the details, tapping on a run will lead you into the familiar workflow experience we brought you last year to explore everything from a run's overall status to its individual jobs and even logs.

A run didn't go as planned? No problem. Toggle the new debug-switch when re-running a workflow to see what's going on under the hood, just like you would on GitHub.com.
