Docs feedback: Conflicting information when a file matches multiple entry in CODEOWNERS
Link the doc and describe what is wrong with it.
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/code_owners.html
Conflicting information when a file matches multiple entry:
- When a file matches multiple entries in the
CODEOWNERS
file, the users from all entries are displayed on the blob page of the given file. - The order in which the paths are defined is significant: the last pattern that matches a given path will be used to find the code owners.
I did a quick test and the second one is correct. Only the last pattern that matches the file will be used to find the code owners and will be displayed in the blob page.
