We’ve updated our Pre-release License Terms to make it easier for our enterprise customers to try out GitHub preview features.

  • Indemnity now included: Volume licensing customers are now covered by indemnity protections when using pre-release software and its outputs.

  • No more blanket exclusion: We’ve removed the previous “no indemnity” language from our pre-release terms.

  • Liability cap removed: The usual liability cap does not apply to these new indemnity protections.

Who’s covered?

Customers using GitHub under a GitHub Customer Agreement or Microsoft volume licensing agreement.

Note: Individual users and other plan types are not affected by this change.

Effective date: July 9, 2025
