<h3 class="section">3.13 Naming Conventions</h3>
<p>Some names in monotone are private to your work, such as
filenames. Other names are potentially visible outside your project,
such as <span class="sc">rsa</span> key identifiers or branch names. It is possible that if
you choose such names carelessly, you will choose a name which someone
else in the world is using, and subsequently you may cause confusion
when your work and theirs is received simultaneously by some third
party.
<p>We therefore recommend two naming conventions:
<ul>
<li>For <span class="sc">rsa</span> keys, use the name of an active email address you
own. This will minimize conflicts, and also serves as a mnemonic to
associate your personal <em>identity</em> with signatures made with your
key. For example, monotone's primary author uses the key identifier
<code>graydon@pobox.com</code>.
<li>For branch names, select any name you like but prefix it with the
“inverted domain name” of a DNS domain you control or are otherwise
authorized to use. This behavior mimics the package naming convention
in the java programming language. For example, monotone itself is
developed within the <code>net.venge.monotone</code> branch, because the
original author owned the DNS domain <code>venge.net</code>.
</ul>
