Gitlab: team member project access levels

问题:

GitLab offers the project access levels "Guest", "Reporter", "Developer" and "Master" for "team members" co-operating with a specific project.

"Master" and "Guest" are self-explanatory, but the others aren't quite clear to me, in their extents as well as in their granularity. What is the difference between these levels?

2013: The project_security_spec.rb test each profile capabilities, which are listed in ability.rb:

(2017 GitLab 10.x: this would be more likely in app/policies/project_policy.rb)

Those rules are quite explicit:

def public_project_rules
  [
    :download_code,
    :fork_project,
    :read_project,
    :read_wiki,
    :read_issue,
    :read_milestone,
    :read_project_snippet,
    :read_team_member,
    :read_merge_request,
    :read_note,
    :write_issue,
    :write_note
  ]
end

def project_guest_rules
  [
    :read_project,
    :read_wiki,
    :read_issue,
    :read_milestone,
    :read_project_snippet,
    :read_team_member,
    :read_merge_request,
    :read_note,
    :write_project,
    :write_issue,
    :write_note
  ]
end

def project_report_rules
  project_guest_rules + [
    :download_code,
    :fork_project,
    :write_project_snippet
  ]
end

def project_dev_rules
  project_report_rules + [
    :write_merge_request,
    :write_wiki,
    :push_code
  ]
end

That means:

• a reporter is a guest who can also:
  • download code,
  • fork a project,
  • write project snippet
• a developer is a reporter who can also:
  • write merge request,
  • write wiki pages,
  • push code

These days, the access levels are well documented here: http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/permissions/permissions.html
