+
+GitHub Admins have more permissions on GitHub than normal contributors or even committers.  There are
+a few responsibilities that come with that increased power.
+
+
+Adding and removing committers
+==============================
+
+The Ansible Team will periodically review who is actively contributing to Ansible to grant or revoke
+contributors' ability to commit on their own.  GitHub Admins are the people who have the power to
+actually manage the GitHub permissions.
+
+
+Changing branch permissions for releases
+========================================
+
+When we make releases we make people go through a :ref:`release_managers` to push commits to that
+branch.  The GitHub admins are responsible for setting the branch so only the Release Manager can
+commit to the branch when the release process reaches that stage and later opening the branch once
+the release has been made.  The Release manager will let the GitHub Admin know when this needs to be
+done.

+    on how to change branch permissions.
