Octopus Deploy GitHub app improvements

In December 2025, Octopus Deploy announced improvements to its GitHub App integration, which initially launched in early 2024 to facilitate seamless connections between GitHub and Octopus Deploy by removing the need to manually manage GitHub credentials. The update now allows users to search and select specific repositories, which addresses the cumbersome process of scrolling through a limited list of accessible repositories—previously capped at 50 at a time—particularly beneficial for those managing hundreds or thousands of repositories. Additionally, users can now utilize their GitHub App connection for any Git-based dependency, simplifying setup and ensuring a consistent authentication experience across project repositories and related dependencies. These enhancements are currently available to GitHub App connections with access to all repositories, while plans are underway to extend the GitHub App to self-hosted Octopus Deploy instances, providing a broader range of users with these streamlined capabilities.
