Pass the Microsoft GitHub Administrator GH-900 Questions and answers with ValidTests

GitHub Actions are automated workflows that can be triggered by various events on GitHub. Some common events that trigger workflows include pushes to a repository, creation of issues, and comments on discussion posts.

Triggering GitHub Actions:

Option D (Pushing to a GitHub repository) is correct because this is one of the most common triggers for CI/CD workflows.

Option F (Creating an Issue) is correct because issues are commonly used as triggers for workflows, such as automatically assigning a label or notifying a team.

Option A (Adding a comment to a discussion post) is correct because actions can be triggered by activity on discussion posts, including comments.

Incorrect Options:

Option B (Creating a new repository) is incorrect because this action typically does not trigger workflows within a specific repository.

Option C (Committing a change to a local git repository) is incorrect because GitHub Actions are triggered by events on the GitHub platform, not by local commits.

Option E (Disabling a GitHub runner) is incorrect because it is related to the environment where actions are executed, not a trigger for workflows.

Pull requests are created to propose changes from one branch to another. These branches must be different; otherwise, there would be no changes to propose. Typically, pull requests are made from a feature or topic branch to a main branch (such as main or master), allowing for code review and integration before the changes are merged.

=================

The feature you can use to merge proposed changes in a repository on GitHub is Pull requests. Pull requests are a core feature of GitHub, allowing developers to propose changes to a codebase, review code, discuss the changes, and eventually merge them into the main branch. This collaborative workflow ensures that code is reviewed and vetted before becoming part of the project.

=================

When using GitHub Codespaces, you can customize several aspects of the development environment:

Shell: You can choose the default shell to be used in the Codespace, such as Bash, Zsh, or PowerShell.

Name: Users can customize the name of their Codespace for easier identification.

Default editor: You can choose which editor to use within the Codespace, such as Visual Studio Code or others that may be supported.

Branch protections and the operating system are not customizable for an individual Codespace within GitHub, making the options Shell, Name, and Default editor the correct answers.

=================

From a discussion post on GitHub, a user can Create an issue from the discussion. This feature allows users to turn a discussion into an actionable item by creating an issue directly from the discussion thread. This is particularly useful when a conversation identifies a bug, task, or enhancement that needs to be tracked in the repository.

=================

GitHub Copilot for Business offers several features that are tailored to the needs of organizations, providing more control, security, and support compared to the individual version.

Organization-wide Policy Management:

Option B is correct because Copilot for Business allows organizations to manage policies across their entire user base, providing control over how Copilot is used within the organization.

Blocking Suggestions Matching Public Code:

Option C is correct because Copilot for Business includes enhanced security features, such as blocking code suggestions that match public code to prevent inadvertent use of unlicensed code.

Support for Organization or Enterprise GitHub Accounts:

Option E is correct because Copilot for Business supports integration with GitHub Enterprise accounts, offering additional administrative controls and integration capabilities.

Incorrect Options:

Option A (multi-line function suggestions) is a feature available in both individual and business versions, so it does not differentiate the business offering.

Option D (VPN proxy support via self-signed certificates) is not a primary differentiator of Copilot for Business.

Option F (plugs directly into the editor) is true for both individual and business versions, so it is not unique to Copilot for Business.

The qualifier mentions: is used in GitHub's search functionality to find issues that mention a certain user. For example, if you want to find all issues where a specific user is mentioned, you would use mentions:username. This helps in tracking where a user has been involved in discussions across issues or pull requests.

=================

For private repositories on GitHub, the Wiki is accessible to anyone who has Read access to the repository. This means that if you can view the code and files in the repository, you can also view its Wiki. This makes Wikis a useful tool for documenting projects in a way that is available to all collaborators without requiring special permissions beyond those needed to access the repository itself.

=================

Cloning a repository in GitHub refers to creating a copy of the repository on your local machine. This allows you to work on the project offline, make changes, and later push those changes back to the remote repository. It does not involve creating a copy on GitHub.com (which would be forking), retrieving updates (which would be pulling), or importing source code into a new repository (which is done differently).

=================

GitHub Sponsors allows developers and organizations to financially support open-source contributors directly on the GitHub platform.

Setting Up a Sponsored Developer Profile:

Option D is correct because before a contributor can receive funding through GitHub Sponsors, they need

=================
