Various groups at Mozilla use https://github.com/mozilla differently. Alphabetically:
- labs maintain their own stuff
- releng uses it differently (as mirrors)
- Standards does not use the Mozilla github yet but is looking into it.
- webdev documents their use of Github in the webdev bootcamp docs:
Forking vs Transfering
Do not "fork" a repository into the Mozilla organization. Doing so gives every team in the org rights to it.
If you have created a repo on your own account (for example, jsocol/myrepo) and it should live under the Mozilla organization, here are the steps:
- If you're not a member of any team with admin, talk to an org admin.
- Under the repo admin, transfer ownership to the Mozilla organization. If you don't see this option, return to step 1.
- Fork the repo from Mozilla (mozilla/myrepo) back to your account (recreating jsocol/myrepo). While the transferred repo becomes the root of the network on Github (e.g. all forks are now forks of mozilla/myrepo) other users may be pointing to your repo by URL.
- Talk to an org admin to add the appropriate teams to the new Mozilla repo.
