Packages: Fine-grained permissions and organization-level publishing are now available for the GitHub Packages RubyGems registry

The GitHub Packages RubyGems registry now runs on a new architecture, unlocking great new capabilities:

Publishing packages at organization level with GitHub Packages

Previously, RubyGems packages published to GitHub Packages were closely coupled to their repositories. Now packages can be published at an organization level. They can still be linked to a repository at any time, if needed.

Fine grained permissions for RubyGems packages published to GitHub Packages

You can now configure Actions and Codespaces repository access on the package's settings page, or invite other users to access the package. Additionally, RubyGems packages published to GitHub Packages can still be configured to automatically inherit all permissions from a linked repository.

Internal visibility

In addition to public and private, a package's visibility can now also be set to internal. It is then visible for all members of the GitHub organization.
