Is there a naming convention for git repositories?

git, github, naming-conventions

Solution

I'd go for `purchase-rest-service`. Reasons:

What is "pur chase rests ervice"? Long, concatenated words are hard to understand. I know, I'm German. "Donaudampfschifffahrtskapitänspatentausfüllungsassistentenausschreibungsstellenbewerbung."

"_" is harder to type than "-"

Problem

For example, I have a RESTful service called Purchase Service. Should I name my repository: - `purchaserestservice` - `purchase-rest-service` - `purchase_rest_service` - or something else? What's the convention? How about in GitHub? Should public repositories follow some standard?
