How to ensure that Visual Studio Online Git Repository is private?

I'm on free 5 user plan of Team Services at VisualStudio.com. Could you please tell me where can I find an option or a mention that shows if the Git repositories I have are public or private?

I tried to enter a repo URL into a browser with another user logged on and got 'access denied' (as expected). But I want to be 100% sure to avoid occasions similar to this one.

Thanks for any advice!

To verify that you could go ahead and clone the git repository on some other computer using the https or ssh links and see if it prompts for the credentials. If it gets cloned without asking for the credentials, then it is not private. Why trust someone else, when you could yourself verify.

All repositories in Visual Studio Team Services are private... They do not offer public repositories at the moment.

https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-team-services-vs.aspx

Free benefits Five users free, unlimited private repos, developer tools, training and support

https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/features/version-control-vs.aspx

Unlimited free repos And they're private, too!

Don't limit your development projects! Visual Studio Team Services provides teams with the ability to create as many Git or TFVC repos as are needed for any project.
