# GitHub Docs \n\nWelcome to GitHub Docs! GitHub’s documentation is open source, meaning anyone from inside or outside the company can contribute. For full contributing guidelines, visit our [contributing guide](https://docs.github.com/en/contributing).\n\n\n## Quick links by contributor type\n\n* **Hubbers (GitHub employees):** See [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/github/docs-content/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) in the `docs-content` repository for GitHub-specific processes.\n\n* **Open source contributors:** See [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/github/docs/blob/main/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md) in the `docs` repository for a quick-start summary.\n\n## How we sync changes across Docs repositories\n\nThere are two GitHub Docs repositories: \n\n- **`github/docs`** (public): Open to external contributions\n\n- **`github/docs-internal`** (private): For GitHub employee contributions. \n\nThe two repositories sync frequently. Content changes in one are reflected in the other.  Hubbers might prefer to post in `docs` when working with a customer, but `docs` has limitations on the types of contributions it accepts to safeguard the site and our workflows. Internal contributions should usually go to `docs-internal`.\n\n**Important:** The `docs` repository accepts contributions to content files (`.md` files in `/content` and select `/data` sections like reusables only). Infrastructure files, workflows, and site-building code are not open for external modification.\n\n## New to contributing\n\nHere are some resources to help you get started with open source contributions:\n\n* [Finding ways to contribute to open source on GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/exploring-projects-on-github/finding-ways-to-contribute-to-open-source-on-github)\n* [Set up Git](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/git-basics/set-up-git)\n* [GitHub flow](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/using-github/github-flow)\n* [Collaborating with pull requests](https://docs.github.com/en/github
