Frequently Asked Questions

Where should the CODEOWNERS file be placed in a GitHub repository?

GitHub detects CODEOWNERS in three locations: the root directory (`/CODEOWNERS`), the `.github/` folder (`/.github/CODEOWNERS`), or the `docs/` folder (`/docs/CODEOWNERS`).

How does GitHub resolve conflicting rules in CODEOWNERS?

GitHub evaluates CODEOWNERS rules from top to bottom; the last matching pattern in the file takes precedence.
