The problem
The special characters
*and(default sort order is(and then*.The last matching pattern in the
CODEOWNERSfile is used to determine file ownership.Example from our super-large-mono-repo:
/directory/owner/(my_folder)/**/**has an assigned order offoo/directory/owner/**has an assigned order ofbarDefault sorting would place the
/directory/owner/**line last giving it precedence, but/directory/owner/(my_folder)/**/**is more specific and should have precedence.Fix
Customize CODEOWNERS line sorting to have a special case for lines containing
**characters.
