[Privacy] Hide private GitHub repo names in Codecov public profile

[cbismuth]

Dear Codecov Team,

Private GitHub repo names are listed in Codecov public profile.

Is there a way to re-sync this list?

Thanks, Christophe

Hey @cbismuth

Codecov is showing the following repos

• azure-sdk-for-java-issues-8183
• travis-ci-maven-deploy-skeleton
• SPR-15380
• spark-utils
• scala-training
• junit-repeat-rule
• google-test-examples
• fdupes-java
• fast-random
• elasticsearch
• eclipse-jdt-sort-plugin

Do you know if these were explicitly marked as private? All I can see on codecov is that these are public and inactive, and I don't see those in your github.

Were these deleted on your end?

[cbismuth]

@rohan-at-sentry, thanks for your reply, these repositories were public before I made them private on GitHub.

[rohan-at-sentry]

Thanks @cbismuth - I'm also assuming you tried to resynch manually from the UI - see screenshot Can you confirm?

[cbismuth]

Yes @rohan-at-sentry, I tried once again just now, then signed out and in again, but still facing this issue.

[rohan-at-sentry]

@cbismuth apologies for the delay in responding. Yeah this looks like a bug. I've assigned it as such, will pull it into a sprint soon and keep you updated

[cbismuth]

Thanks @rohan-at-sentry.

got similar issue. could we have an option to hide repos on codecov public page? eg https://app.codecov.io/gh/yaitoo We only have 2 public repos now. is it possible to hide other 5 repos?

[cnlangzi]

tried multiple solutions, but all of them don't work

• click resync
• revoke codecov permission, and login and grant it again.
• click Erase Content

Thanks for bubbling this back up @cnlangzi - sorry that this hasn't seen any movement for a while. I can reprioritize this week and update back here

@cnlangzi @cbismuth After doing some digging, we've seen that the list of repositories coming back from github don't include a number of repositories; including ones mentioned above that we wish to turn private.

Could you please confirm when going to Github profile -> Settings -> Applications -> Installed Github Apps (screenshots attached), that "All Repositories" is checked? From there if you could try re-syncing the repos and confirm that the repositories privacy status is in the correct state, that would be incredibly helpful.

If that proves to not be the fix, we can continue to investigate. Thank you for your patience!

[cnlangzi]

@ajay-sentry good job. it works now if repository is private and granted. but it still not work if a repository is deleted on github or not granted. do you think it is better:

• update it as private if it is private from github api response
• update it as private if it is not returned from github api response: deleted or not granted

[ajay-sentry]

@cnlangzi I'm glad we were able to make some progress here :) And yes that's a great call out and something I noticed as well in my testing. I've surfaced this with the team and will report back after we discuss a path forward

[drazisil-codecov]

@ajay-sentry That's this code, for reference https://github.com/codecov/codecov-api/blob/bce1ddd11ddd17ea61e027082abd0303c500f8f4/webhook_handlers/views/github.py#L187-L197

Hey @cnlangzi, just an update to close the loop here. We have discussed as a team and have found that there are a lot of areas of improvement we can be making for this particular task, and have created a new epic to track here if you would like to stay informed throughout! For now, we would like to close this ticket as "complete" since we have a workaround, but we know there is much to be done here and will try and prioritize in the near future.
