Membership

Membership in a Swarm project identifies users as belonging to the project, making them part of the team.

The only notable differences between project members and non-members is that members receive notifications when new code reviews are started, member avatars appear on the project's Overview page, and members can transition reviews to other states. Non-members can transition reviews they have authored.

There are two ways to become a member of a project in Swarm:

  1. Add a project and make yourself a member.

  2. Ask a member of an existing project to add you as a member.

    Note

    If the project has any owners specified, you need to ask the project owner to add you as a member.
