Description

What is the bug?

Because of the way we're creating repos, our templates are copied from https://github.com/amazon-archives (specifically Apache-2.0), not this .github. That means our files like maintainers, etc, are not getting copied over when repos are created. (see https://github.com/opensearch-project/opensearch-testcontainers/pull/1).

How can one reproduce the bug?

Create a new repo.

What is the expected behavior?

.github files would be copied over. They are not.

Do you have any additional context?

Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository-creation flow and how it selects templates, then compare the expected .github files with the Apache-2.0 template from amazon-archives. Use opensearch-testcontainers/pull/1 as the concrete example. Done means newly created OpenSearch repositories receive the relevant .github files.
