Ideally, I would like to see this repo used as infrastructure as code for GitHub related work:
We can do it in .github
but .github
is a template as well and if I understood how a template works files and directories get moved to all the repositories created from that template. And this is not what I would like
I mentioned .github because probot apps should be able to look for config files for the apps there by default so some of those things might come for free with probot apps or ones we could write. This could apply for points 1-3 I think.
It doesn't look like .github is a template repo, its not checked in the settings.
I am on it! This repo will be archived
.github directory is already a centralish place to have these kinds of org wide metadata I think and maybe this content can live there instead.
Counter point: it seems mostly used for tools and not so much for humans.
