Repository naming

See the corresponding subsection in the product/component hierarchy section.

Repository setup

When creating a new repository, follow the following checklist:

• The repository is named {product}-{component}.
• The "admins" team has been given admin permissions.
• The "developers" team has been given write permissions.
• The "droids" team has been given read or write permissions as appropriate.
• The master branch is protected:
• Pull requests require reviews.
• Status checks must pass.
• Include administrators in the restrictions.
