GitHub has enabled push protection by default for all public repositories to prevent accidental exposure of secrets such as access tokens and API keys when pushing new code.

GitHub announced on Monday that it expanded its code hosting platform's secrets scanning capabilities for GitHub Advanced Security customers to automatically block secret leaks.

This complete Git and GitLab tutorial shows you how to manage, merge and share your code commits with others.

In addition to the GitHub for Windows application itself, it includes a self-contained version of git, the bash command-line shell, and the posh-git extension for PowerShell.

The workflow is straightforward, push a new commit to your main branch on GitHub, and the action will trigger, building a few different versions.
