Git - Invite users to your repository or instance

This guide explains how to invite other users to your repositories on STACKIT Git.

You cannot invite users directly from the STACKIT Git instance. Instead, you need to guide them to access the instance and create their own user accounts.

Here’s how to invite users:

1. Share the STACKIT Git instance URL: Provide the URL of your STACKIT Git instance to the users you want to invite.

2. User Account Creation: When users access the instance URL and log in through the STACKIT IDP, a new user account will be automatically created for them.

   Important: Users can only access the instance (and create an account) if they belong to the same organization as the STACKIT Git instance.

   The old URL was shut down on Feb. 01, 2024.

3. Invite Users to Repositories: Once users have created their accounts with one click, you can invite them to your repositories:

   • Navigate to the repository settings: Go to the repository you want to invite users to and click on the “Settings” tab.
   • Type in the “Collaborators” name: It should correspond to the first part of their email address
   • Add collaborator: Click on the “Add collaborator” button and enter the username of the user you want to invite.
