Merged
Conversation
When an IdP attribute matches several role mappings (e.g. user belongs to multiple groups), the assigned role is now the highest-privileged match rather than the first match encountered.

Problem
The SSO doc still says the first matching mapping wins when an IdP attribute matches several role mappings.
Fix
Update the doc to reflect the new behavior introduced in huggingface-internal/moon-landing#18282: the most privileged matching role is assigned, with hierarchy
read<contributor<write<admin.Note
Low Risk
Documentation-only change that updates described SSO role-mapping precedence; no runtime behavior or security logic is modified.
