When To Use This Example​

Use this page as a concrete starting point when the file path and convention type match your project. Treat the content as a reference shape, not as a mandatory template.

How To Adapt It​

  • Keep fields that describe real project behavior.
  • Remove placeholders that do not apply to your repository.
  • Prefer short, explicit instructions over broad policy language.
  • Link the adapted file back to the convention it supports when possible.
