Git / CODEOWNERS file
Posted On 03.03.2022
On Github, you can create a CODEOWNERS
file in the .github/
or docs/
folder to specify which person or team is responsible for the code in a repository.
If a file or a folder has a code owner, their name will be displayed when someone views the file on Github. All the involved code owners can also be automatically suggested as a reviewer when you open new pull requests.
The syntax of the CODEOWNERS
file is similar to the .gitignore
file, but you need to specify the owner (an individual or a team) next to an entry:
*.js @frontend-team
*.test.js @huy
.github @sre-team
apps/app-01 @david
apps/app-02 @ben @david
ui/components/dropdown/* @maki
ui/components/forms @huy @maki
More details can be found in the official document on Github◹ or Gitlab◹.
