GitHub custom organization locations

ghlorg.md

Set custom GitHub organization locations, like this one:

Since GitHub tries to make you choose from countries now, just use the API to get around it.

curl \
  -X PATCH \
  -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" \
  -H "Authorization: token YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" \
  https://api.github.com/orgs/ORG_NAME_HERE \
  -d '{"location":"ORG_LOCATION_HERE"}'

where:

• YOUR_TOKEN_HERE = your personal access token with the org:admin scope - get it at https://github.com/settings/tokens
• ORG_NAME_HERE = your organization's username, e.g for https://github.com/pigeon-robotics/ then pigeon-robotics would be the username
• ORG_LOCATION_HERE = any string that you want to set as the organization location
