-- [Configure and Use Secret Scanning]

What happens when you enable secret scanning on a private repository?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

When secret scanning is enabled on a private repository, GitHub performs a read-only analysis of the repository's contents. This includes the entire Git history and files to identify strings that match known secret patterns or custom-defined patterns.

GitHub does not alter the repository, and enabling secret scanning does not automatically enable code scanning or dependency review --- each must be configured separately.

I'm pretty sure it's C. GitHub just does a read-only scan, no need to worry about any changes to the repo.
