Enum Visibility 

pub enum Visibility {
    Private,
    Public,
}

Who may read a repository without an explicit grant.

⚠ The meaning of Visibility::Public changed on 2026-08-03. It used to mean “any authenticated principal may read”, because gunnar had no unauthenticated path at all and the field therefore honoured nothing a private repository did not already get from a grant. It now means what the word says: readable by anyone, with no key. An operator who marked a repository public under the old reading has published it under the new one. Visibility::Private is still the default and is unchanged, and an appliance that must never serve a stranger turns the anonymous path off at the listener (SshConfig::without_anonymous_access).

Variants

Private

Only principals with a grant. The default, and the only safe one.

A private repository is indistinguishable from one that does not exist to a caller who may not read it. The SSH dispatch answers both with the same string, so a stranger cannot enumerate private repositories one guess at a time.

Public

Readable by anyone, including a caller who presented no key at all That is what PrincipalKind::Anonymous is for.

Read only, and only git-upload-pack. Writing still needs a grant, so Level::Write and Level::Admin are unaffected by this field.
