Summary

Community plays a crucial role in open-source projects, but disruptive individuals can negatively impact the collective experience. To mitigate this, organization owners now have the capability to block abusive users from public repositories, which restricts them from engaging in activities such as opening or commenting on issues or pull requests, forking repositories, and editing wiki pages. This blocking feature ensures that all related activities are documented in the organization’s audit log. For further guidance on fostering positive contributions, the community documentation articles offer valuable insights.
