Explanation
Repository Settings > Manage Access is the dedicated section in GitHub where administrators can view all collaborators and teams with access to a repository, see their assigned permission levels (Read, Triage, Write, Maintain, Admin), and add or remove access - making it the correct tool for this task.
GitHub Pages Settings (A) controls static site publishing configuration, not user permissions. GitHub Actions Logs (B) shows workflow run history and CI/CD output, which has nothing to do with who has repository access. Branch Protection Rules (D) restricts what actions can be performed on specific branches (e.g., requiring reviews before merging), but does not manage who has access to the repository itself.
Memory tip: Think "Manage Access" = "Manage who has access." The word "Manage" in the menu name directly mirrors the task of managing people and permissions - if you need to see or change who can do what, go to Settings > Manage Access.
