Describe the need

I manage an org that primarily adds people to GitHub using an IDP. So we don't use the github_membership resource primarily to manage org membership. But I'm interested in using github_membership to assign some specific members to admin and have that managed by Terraform.

github_membership allows for a "create or update" resource creation, so if the membership exists before the resource is managed by Terraform then Terraform will just update the membership. But when the resource is destroyed, membership from the org is revoked. In my case, I'd prefer if "resource destroy" just downgraded the member back to member.

The resource definition could look like this:

locals {
  member_permissions = {
    "jsifuentes": "admin"
  }
}

resource "github_membership" "member_role" {
  for_each = local.member_permissions

  username             = each.key
  role                 = each.value
  downgrade_on_destroy = true
}
