How to reinstate a removed user from team in GitHub without consuming pending invite?
I am a user in GitHub with owner access on a team. By-mistake removed a member who had accepted the invitation to join the team. Now when i try to reinstate the removed member i get option to invite the member again but it consumes my pending invitation access which i want to use to invite other members? How can i reinstate the removed member without consuming my pending invitation access?
Only GitHub support would be able to sort this out.
By default, reinstating your removed user would mean re-inviting it again, which does indeed consume an invitation access, as illustrated by the GitHub API repository Invitation.
From "Add a repository collaborator"
To prevent abuse, you are limited to sending 50 invitations to a repository per 24 hour period.
Note there is no limit if you are inviting organization members to an organization repository.
So waiting 24 hours would be enough to repeat the invitation.
