The Zephyr project uses GitHub for code reviews and Git tree management. When
submitting a change or an enhancement to any Zephyr component, a developer
should use GitHub. GitHub automatically assigns a responsible reviewer on a

tree in the Zephyr project repository. A limited set of release managers are
allowed to merge a pull request into the main branch once reviews are complete.
