GitHub is now free for teams

Re:GitHub is now free for teams by freyfogle on Tuesday April 14, 2020 @03:03PM (#22870078)

I currently pay for a Github Silver plan annually ($600). When I try to downgrade to Free I get a message (in red) "You will no longer be able to access your private repositories or create new private repositories."

How do I downgrade without losing all my private repos.

Thank you!

Martin from GitHub here. Sorry about that message - team are rolling out an update to change the text and should be fixed soon. In the meantime if you ignore that message and downgrade from a legacy plan to Free then you will retain access to your private repositories.

Is the system supposed to be charging for outside collaborators on the Team plan still? The language makes it sound like those should be free now.

thanks for the fast and reassuring answer, I appreciate it. I'll wait until that message goes away, I can't risk losing my private repos.

When you emailed this question to GitHub Support, how did they respond?
