  2. Na barra lateral esquerda, clique em Account.

  3. Under "Successor settings", to invite a successor, begin typing a username, full name, or email address, then click their name when it appears.

    Screenshot of the "Successor settings" section. The string "octocat" is entered in a search field, and Octocat's profile is listed in a dropdown.

  4. Click Add successor.

  5. Se precisar, confirme o acesso à sua conta no GitHub. Para saber mais, confira Modo sudo.

The user you've invited will be listed as "Pending" until they agree to become your successor.
