Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.
Add a selected repository to a user secret
Grants a specified repository access to an authenticated user's existing codespaces secret, enabling codespaces created for that repository to use the secret.
Add assignees to an issue
