How do I enable a person to ONLY view the contents of a private github repo? I don't understand a bit: when I go to the settings of a private repo in the Manage access section and add a person via the Add a collaborator button , does he by default then get access to only view (read) , or to manage the repository as a whole ?

Answer 1

In short, such an opportunity is still present, only you need to create a private repo not for a profile, but for an organization.
