Summary
This blog post discusses the implementation of Andrew Ring’s 'Distributed CODEOWNERS' in GitHub, which allows for organizing ownership of code across different projects in a centralized manner similar to Google’s OWNERS system. It highlights the differences in how permissions are managed in the Google and GitHub systems and provides practical steps to adopt the distributed model using a pre-commit hook.
