For several years, I’ve been working with GitHub and GitHub Classroom. For each course, I have an organization where I store class examples (which are public) and repositories with starter code and other files I want to distribute for labs, projects, exams, etc. (which are private and template repositories). I reuse this organization each semester I teach a particular course. Let’s call it CompSciXYZ. Then for each semester, I create another organization to attach to that semester’s GitHub Classroom classroom, where all student-created repositories reside. Let’s call that CompSciXYZS21. Until now, when I create a new assignment in the classroom, I have been able to specify a private repository from CompSciXYZ as the template. But today, I am unable to do that. It doesn’t find the repository. I am not sure if I’m missing a setting somewhere or if underlying behavior has changed. CompSciXYZ is set to be accessed by GitHub Classroom in general, but not by specific classrooms. CompSciXYZS21 is specified as the organization attached to this semester’s classroom.
Looking for suggestions on where to look, or information about changes made since November that might affect this. Thanks.
