GitHub's free org plan –> NO secrets for private repos!

[nanankcornering]

Was setting up Actions CI for a university project only to realize that private repo can't access org's Secret unless it is on a paid plan.

Shouldn't this be a security issue?

"Secrets are available in all public repositories, in private repositories owned by personal accounts, and in private repositories owned by organizations on GitHub Team or GitHub Enterprise plans."

So add it as a repo secret?
