GitHub - Adjusting the Email Notifications

Devs,

I had a client project which I put all of their source code on my company's GitHub repo. However, my team was having some issues with the email notifications coming to our personal emails (from personal github accounts) instead of our company emails. So, here's how to resolve.

Reference for adjusting email notifications (when contracts require notifications only to work email)

  • Log into your GitHub account.
  • In the top right corner of any page, click the Settings icon.
  • In the user’s Personal settings sidebar, click “Emails”.
  • Add your Company's work email if you haven’t already.
  • Click “Send verification email”.
  • Log into your Company's email account.
  • Verify the email sent from GitHub.
  • Notice that you will need to either click on the link and sign back into GitHub, or copy/paste link into browser. Next, click “Confirm” next to added email.
  • In the user’s Personal settings sidebar, click “Notification center”.
  • Go down to section “Notification email”.
  • In Custom routing subsection, edit your email for CompanyGitHubAdminUser repo to go to your Company work  email.
  • Test and see. That should be successful!
