Manage GitHub Organisation with Terraform Cloud | Repository Structure | Access Controls

In this video, I'll show you how to manage your github organisation with Terraform Cloud, scenarios on how to structure your repositories, using templates to standardise deployments and controls and guardrails to protect you from issues.

So I didn't mention really much on GitHub Permissions, so I updated the blog but at the end of the day branch protection rules and codeowners is what ensures there are code reviews before contributors are allowed to merge code to master! See the blog for more info: https://www.someoneelsescloud.com/episodes/managing-github-organisation-with-terraform-cloud/#github-permissions

Note: OBS made funny noises on some of the screen transitions, so I had to cut them out, thus why the audio volume fluctuates during transitions! If you know OBS and anything about scene transitions and audio, let me know!
