GitHub Enterprise Server Community Guidelines
Refer to these guidelines to ensure that your GitHub Enterprise Server account remains active.
What Is a Dormant Account?
A user account is considered dormant if it meets all of the following conditions:
- The account has existed for more than 90 days.
- It has not used any personal access tokens (PATs) or SSH keys in the last 90 days.
- It has not generated any activity in the last 90 days.
- It is not a site admin.
Examples of account activity include:
- Commenting on issues or pull requests.
- Creating issues, pull requests, or repositories.
- Making commits to any repository.
- Owning repositories that have been pushed to recently.
Quarterly Review & Suspension
Dormant accounts are reviewed quarterly. If an account remains inactive during the review period, it will be transitioned to a suspended state. Suspended accounts need no intervention. Users just need to log in and to become active again.
How to Stay Active
To avoid your account being marked as dormant or suspended, simply:
- Push code.
- Interact with issues or pull requests.
- Use a personal access token or SSH key.
