The GH logo is available in the ionicons API too, isn't it? |

do we have written approval to do this?
Do not use GitHub trademarks, logos, or artwork without GitHub’s prior written permission.
IANAL - but the do not contradicts the Do.
Also how does this look in the dark theme - as we explicitly can not change the colours (which inverting in the dark theme would do IIUC).
This also incorrectly (IMO) changes the logo used in the title of the project - it should only (if approved by GitHub) be used in the sidebar link) |
The icon is part of the icon set named "ionicons" (https://ionic.io/ionicons) licensed under MIT. |
it is a trademark of GitHub and as such trademark rights apply - we do not care about the licence of the actual vector for this discussion. (the licence is just can we embed this icon - and it has no bearing on if we can actually use it or not - which is trademark law) |
https://support.github.com/ticket/personal/0/2234467 created to seek approval from GitHub for the use (which is both allowed and not allowed at the same time) but also for inverting for the dark theme which is not allowed. |
GitHub responded - as there are 2 logos in their download ( I still beleive we need to revert the icon change for the display of the project name - which seems unintentional based on the PR description and also does not appear to correspond to the usage requirements. |
I've updated the PR to align with this - pipelines will now use their original folder icon rather than the GitHub logo. Thanks |
Just to make the error message more searchable: this change (seemingly quite intentionally) results in the "Manage Old Data" tab showing lots of warning messages

Description
Small change to use the GitHub logo (as a Jenkins Symbol) for sidebar actions. IMO using the one icon verses the couple currently in use makes it more consistent and understandable what the link does at a glance.
