The guide is done when it explains the standard repository settings, links to the configuration document, and mentions the module template for package repositories.

Description
h2. Problem
Creating a new repository is not as simple as pressing the "plus" button on GitHub. There are two things that we ought to communicate for people who want to create a repo. First, there are a series of settings that an admin should make to ensure that the repo is configured in a standard way. Right now, these steps live in a private doc. Furthermore, if the repo will represent a package, then the module template should be used to create the repo. This ensures that the package is set up in a standard way.
