Repo Best Practices

Repository security

It is strongly suggested to make your repositories private instead of internal.

Internal repositories are visible by anyone in the organization.

Teams

You should create a team and give the team access to the private repository.

Can I make my repository public?

Public repositories require approval. If you want a public repo, please contact us to get the process started.

Naming a repo

Creating a repository name

• Should be lowercase
• Each fragment should be separated with a dash
• Should be at least 2 fragments (agency and project/team name)

Contents and order of fragments

1. Short code for agency or division [dgo, dts, dps, udot, etc.]
2. Project or Team name
3. Type of code/artifact [ws, terraform, fe, client, api, webapp, etc.]

Example: dhrm-jobs-ws
