-## Configuring GitHub Single-Sign-On (unofficial)
-
-Note: Because the authentication interface of GitHub is similar to that of GitLab, the GitLab SSO feature can be used to unofficially also support GitHub SSO.
-
-Follow these steps to configure Mattermost to use Github as a single-sign-on (SSO) service for team creation, account creation and sign-in using the GitLab SSO interface.
-
-1. Login to your GitHub account and go to the Applications section in Profile Settings.
-2. Add a new application called "Mattermost" with the following as Authorization callback URL:
- * `<your-mattermost-url>` (example: http://localhost:8065)
-
-3. Submit the application and copy the given _Id_ and _Secret_ into the appropriate _GitLabSettings_ fields in config/config.json
-
-4. Also in config/config.json, set _Enable_ to `true` for the _gitlab_ section, leave _Scope_ blank and use the following for the endpoints:
- * _AuthEndpoint_: `https://github.com/login/oauth/authorize`
- * _TokenEndpoint_: `https://github.com/login/oauth/access_token`
- * _UserApiEndpoint_: `https://api.github.com/user`
-
-6. (Optional) If you would like to force all users to sign-up with GitHub only,
-in the _ServiceSettings_ section of config/config.json set _DisableEmailSignUp_
-to `true`.
-
-6. Restart your Mattermost server to see the changes take effect.
-
-7. Tell the users to set their public email for GitHub at the [Public profile page](https://github.com/settings/profile). Mattermost uses the email to create account.
