Hi, if I understand it well, you don't want to be dependent on user name/existance on Github while you are using roles from your internal Github Enterprise.
There is way how to solve this. You could have all roles not filed under user, but under organization -- https://help.github.com/enterprise/2.5/admin/guides/user-management/organizations-and-teams/ Example: On Github i have username roolo and here is my role for Ansible -- https://github.com/rooland-provisioning/ansible-role-vim-machine . So when I'll eventually leave Github, this role will be still available for other people Dne pondělí 21. září 2015 14:36:33 UTC+2 Ferenc Szabo napsal(a): > > Hi Guys, > > I'm kinda junior DevOps guy at my company and I'm learning quite a lot > these days about Ansible and how to manage git projects on my own. > > So, here is what I'm thinking about.
