Roles work differently for different types of accounts. For more information about accounts, see AUTOTITLE.
A repository owned by a personal account has two permission levels: the repository owner and collaborators. For more information, see AUTOTITLE.
Organization members can have owner{% ifversion fpt or ghec %}, billing manager,{% endif %} or member roles. Owners have complete administrative access to your organization{% ifversion fpt or ghec %}, while billing managers can manage billing settings{% endif %}. Member is the default role for everyone else. You can manage access permissions for multiple members at a time with teams. For more information, see:
Enterprise accounts have a range of predefined roles that define users' access to the enterprise settings. You can also create custom enterprise roles to define your own sets of fine-grained permissions.
