Pull request overview
This pull request updates the service accounts documentation to clarify the distinction between Service Accounts and Entitlement Tokens, reducing confusion about when to use each authentication method.
Changes:
- Updated the description of service accounts to emphasize they provide general repository access (not just write access)
- Refined the guidance on when to use entitlement tokens to be more specific about their use case (short-term or restricted read access, particularly for software distribution)
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.

Looks good on the preview site. Approved. (I haven't checked for technical accuracy, I'm assuming that has already been done).
