The Buildah Project Community Governance

The Buildah project, as part of Podman Container Tools, follows the Podman Project Governance except sections found in this document, which override those found in Podman's Governance.


Maintainers File

The definitive source of truth for maintainers of this repository is the local MAINTAINERS.md file. The MAINTAINERS.md file in the main Podman repository is used for project-spanning roles, including Core Maintainer and Community Manager. Some repositories in the project will also have a local OWNERS file, which the CI system uses to map users to roles. Any changes to the OWNERS file must make a corresponding change to the MAINTAINERS.md file to ensure that the file remains up to date. Most changes to MAINTAINERS.md will require a change to the repositorys OWNERS file (e.g., adding a Reviewer), but some will not (e.g., promoting a Maintainer to a Core Maintainer, which comes with no additional CI-related privileges).

Any Core Maintainers listed in Podmans MAINTAINERS.md file should also be added to the list of “approvers” in the local OWNERS file and as a Core Maintainer in the list of “Maintainers” in the local MAINTAINERS.md file.
