How to change email visibility in GitHub?

Before starting migration from or to GitHub, check the email visibility of all your users. They should be public during the data migration to ensure proper account migration. Once your data transfer is completed, users can revert their email visibility.

To change the email visibility in GitHub, do the following things:

• Go to your GitHub account, click on the profile icon in the right top corner, and select Settings.

• Under the Account settings, choose Emails.

• Scroll down to Keep my email address private, and remove the tick from the checkbox.
