Abstract
Techniques for enforcing software reviews are described. For example, a commit request to commit code to a repository is received. In response to receiving the commit request, an ownership file is accessed in the repository based on the commit request. The ownership file includes a directory identifier of a directory of the repository and an identifier of an owner who controls committing of code to the directory. A determination is made, based on the ownership file, that the owner did not provide an indication of approval of the code requested to be committed to the repository. A review of the code is facilitated, based on the determination that the owner did not provide the indication of approval.
