For legal reasons, any repository should have a license.
GitHub created a website to help people choosing the right licence for each project.
The Guidelines for DESC Repositories (see the file with the same name in the Publication Board) suggest the BSD 3-Clause "New" or "Revised" License. I think it is a good license because it is permissive while forbidding others from using the name of the project or its contributors to promote derived products without written consent.
