Summary

GitHub has updated its policy regarding collaborator permissions on private repositories under personal accounts. Previously, when a collaborator's permissions were revoked, they retained their fork of the repository. Now, in line with the existing policy for organization-owned repositories, the collaborator's fork will be deleted upon permission removal. This change aims to provide users with greater control over access to their private code.
