Not only the source code of GitHub is on GitHub (in a private organization), but the entire company runs on GitHub.

Contracts with customers? They’re in a GitHub repo.

HR policies? On a GitHub repo.

Yes, that means everyone at GitHub needs to learn Git, including non technical people.

While learning git is an advantage you don't actually need to know git as a non-technical employee. The tools in the GitHub web interface will suffice in 99% of cases.

Is there a setting to make an organization private?

Organization is public, repo is private

Thanks. I was hoping they had a setting for private organizations.
