Take a look at the following published on Tuesday from the Microsoft DevOps product group, announced during Microsoft Ignite 2024:

Licensing integration

For some time now, Visual Studio subscribers have had usage rights for both GitHub Enterprise and Azure DevOps. But other users have had to pay for both products to use them together … until now! We are excited to announce that starting in December, we are including Azure DevOps Basic usage rights with GitHub Enterprise licenses and automating the experience for Azure DevOps customers.

Just as with Visual Studio subscriptions, we will automatically detect GitHub Enterprise Licenses for users when they log into Azure DevOps and grant them a new GitHub Enterprise access level (with access equivalent to Azure DevOps Basic).

This capability will begin lighting up for GitHub Enterprise Cloud customers in December, and for GitHub Enterprise Cloud with Data Residency customers early in the new year.

We are committed to enabling Azure DevOps customers to get the best out of both Azure DevOps and GitHub. We hope you’ll try out the latest integrations and innovations and let us know what you think!
