Thanks. Yes, I meant that "local code" is code pulled down to a person's PC, so we don't want them to leave the company with access to this code. So we can only prevent this scenario by running GitLab in our environment instead of running GitHub in the cloud? Would removing a GitHub account from the GitHub repository prevent them from accessing the code on their PC? How do you prevent private GitHub repositories from being pulled down to unauthorized PCs?

What do you mean by "local code"? That one which is on the notebook? Then you can do literally nothing except for not allowing cloning your Git repositories onto random computers in the first place. If you instead mean the copy of code available in the repositories hosted in your enterprise then all you need to do is to somehow terminate the access of that employee who's left to those repositories. (This assumes they're accessible from the outside; if they aren't, the problem simply do not exist.) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
