[ENHANCEMENT] Cookiecutter-like for creating new repositories

[orviz]

Please elaborate here on the enhancement request.
When running projects involving software developments, managers usually face the need of creating new products (tools/apps) to complement the current software stack. In those cases having a script to create new code repositories with the default/required minimal files is a good practice.

Describe the solution you'd like
Include in the guidelines a recommendation/best practice for managing software projects: defining the structure of the files that need to exist in each code repository AND enforce it with a template generator (such as cookiecutter)

Additional context
Python's Cookiecutter

[orviz]

Sample files could be:

• If Jenkins:
  • Jenkinsfile
  • git hooks (e.g. pre-commit Jenkinsfile's linter)
• If Python:
  • tox.ini
  • requirements.txt
  • test-requirements.txt

RECOMMENDATION / SHOULD
I think it SHOULD be left from the main text, the examples: python, Cookiecutter, jenkin(file), tox etc.

[orviz]

@mariojmdavid Totally agree with leaving it apart from the main text. We should agree in the best way to do this, I suggest to proceed using Annexes, like in #7

[orviz]

I have created a "move to annex" label for this type of requirements.

[mariojmdavid]

we may have a new Annex called recommendations as a best practice to achieve the SQA in a more streamlined manner
the tag "question" is for further discussion, and don't know if we will include this in the next release
