Summary

GitHub has introduced new updates to its interaction limits, providing more flexibility and control for managing repository interactions. Users can now set temporary interaction limits for their repositories for durations ranging from 24 hours to six months, allowing them to manage attention spikes, take breaks, or protect against spam and abuse. A new feature enables a single toggle to impose these interaction limits across all personal repositories, particularly useful for managing open-source projects. These updates are also reflected in both the REST and GraphQL APIs, where users can query and configure interaction limits for individual repositories, users, and organizations. For more detailed guidance, users can refer to the updated Interactions documentation.
