Homonym: Repositories (Storage)
A repository is a storage location where data, files, or resources are kept and managed. In the context of software development, a repository often contains code, documentation, and other related materials. Developers use repositories to collaborate on projects, track changes, and maintain version control, ensuring that everyone can access the latest updates.
Repositories can be hosted on platforms like GitHub or GitLab, which provide tools for managing contributions and reviewing changes. They can be public, allowing anyone to view and contribute, or private, restricting access to specific users. This organization helps streamline workflows and enhances project collaboration.
