Abstract
Concepts for managing code copied from a source repository to a target repository are proposed. Example embodiments comprises generating metadata relating to code copied from the source repository. At the target repository, source repository is monitored to determine if the code copied from the source repository has been modified within the source repository based on the metadata. Responsive to determining the code copied from the source repository has been modified within the source repository, a notification relating to the modification is generated at the target repository.
