GitKraken Pro not working on Student Account - gitkraken

I'm a student and I have the student developer pack on Github (also indicated by a "pro" tag). I use Gitkraken for work and I need GitKraken Pro to manage multiple private repos. I know that GitKraken gives Pro accounts to students but it seems like mine is not working. I've tried going to Preferences-> Authentication ->GitHub and generated an SSH Key. I've also tried logging off and logging back in. Any ideas why my account isn't registering as a pro account? Thanks!

Even if you are already signed in GitHub for working with repositories, you need to sign out of your current GitKraken Account and sign in there with your GitHub as a new GitKraken Account.
File -> Sign into different account -> Sign in with GitHub

How to prevent applications from accessing github

How to prevent applications, like Visual Studio, from Pushing changes to github. There is a PC at my previous place of employment that is linked with my github account. I no longer have access to this PC. Is there a way from https://github.com/ to block all (connected applications) or (disconnect applications that are connected) to my github repos, so they cannot (Push) changes to my github account??
If you change your Github password, it should prevent anyone from your old work being able to alter your work without having that new password, consider also adding two-factor auth. You also neet to go to your account setting on the Github and scroll down to the integrations header and click on applications. From there activate the Authorized OAuth Apps tab, revoke away.

How do I fix problem synching with github on second PC?

I use private repositories on github and can access these quite successfully from my development PC and from some Azure VMs. I do not do anything at commend line. I do everything via TortoiseGit. These are all running windows 10.
On my second PC I used to be able to pull and push, but now it keeps asking ffor github login details, but it rejects these as invalid. I can log into github itself from the PC with the same user name and password. Any idea how I can synch with githib again on this PC ?
GitHub recently disabled password login for Git actions. YOu need to use a special app token.

Adding a new developer to a devops team

The new user setup their account at the tail end of last week and today we added them via the documented invite mechanism to join our dev team using the Microsoft account email address.
they have received the email and clicked the accept link in it and logged in to the portal # {mycorp}.visualstudio.com and confirmed they can see the dashboards, boards, ect.
Having put them in the same team as the rest of us which is a member of the contributors default group for the project in question I was then expecting to open up VS and pull the latest from the repo root.
The user can see everything but the repo it seems so I hit a wall.
How do I fix this because as far as I can tell they have all the permissions that the rest of the team has?
​Ok figured it out ... he was setup as using a VS sub but the VS sub was not found.

GitHub - Failed to locate other GitHub public accounts to add as collaborator

I am new to GitHub and ran into a strange problem. I have a GitHub Enterprise account, and am trying to add other GitHub account users as collaborators to a repo. When I searched for their user names, it errored with a message "XXX isn't a GitHub member". I am very sure that the users I am trying to add just created free public accounts on Github.com and I am searching with the right user names. Can anyone shine some light?
Thanks,
Annie
GitHub.com and your GitHub enterprise are two completely different different instances. They do not share any user data.
This means to add a collaborator to a project on your GitHub enterprise instance the user needs to create an account on this GitHub enterprise instance and not on GitHub.com

What is "Developer Program Member" on Github.com

I have seen couple of Github profiles having "Developer Program Member". I searched on Google a lot but not able to find how people get that in their profile.
This is for developers registered to the GitHub Developer Program (like this GitHub profile, for instance)

A paid GitHub.com personal or organization plan
(since 2019, you don't need a paid membership anymore)
An integration in production or development using the GitHub API
An email address where GitHub users can contact you for support
That allows for:
Staying in the know:
Be the first to know about API changes and try out new features before they launch.
Scratching an itch
Build your own tools that seamlessly integrate with the place you push code every day.
Taking on the enterprise
Obtain developer licenses to build and test your application against GitHub Enterprise.
By joining this Developer Program,
1) You'll receive ongoing notifications about changes to Github API.
2) You can request a development license for GitHub Enterprise.
