Add contributors to a repository

Add contributors to a repository using the web UI.

Adding contributors to a repository allows for collaboration on projects giving them access to modify and push changes to your repository.

Follow these steps to add a contributor to your repository on Protocol.Land:

Note: Only a repository owner can invite contributors.

1. Navigate to the main page of the repository and select the Settings tab.
2. Within Settings, select the “Contributors” tab located on the sidebar.
3. On the Contributors tab, type in the Arweave address of the contributor to be invited in the provided input field.
4. Click “Invite”.

5. The invitation will appear in the “Invited Contributors” list, marked as Invited.

6. Until the invitation is accepted, the Owner can cancel the invitation.
7. To accept an invitation:

   1. To a public repository, the invitee must navigate to the Contributors tab within the repository settings and click “Accept” in the “Invited Contributors” list. Upon accepting, their address is added to the list of contributors.
   2. To a private, the invitee must navigate to the main page of the repository where they view the invitation and click “Accept”.

      1. On acceptance, the status of the invite is updated to “Accepted” and the owner of the repository must grant access to the invited address.
      2. The owner can grant access to the invitee by heading back to the aforementioned “Invited Contributors” list. Once the owner grants access, the address is added as a contributor.
