We’ve introduced a new Moderate role that allows you to moderate and edit issues without granting access to code.

Below are the actions you can perform with the Moderate role.

Content editing

  • Edit issues you didn’t author, including issue titles, bodies, and comments

Moderation

  • Transfer issues between repositories. This requires Moderate role access or above on both the source and destination repository.
  • Hide and unhide issue comments
  • Lock and unlock conversation on an issue
  • Comment on locked issues

Managing metadata

  • Create and edit issue labels
  • Create and edit issue milestones
  • Create and edit discussion categories

Check out the documentation on repository roles for more details.
