In GitHub CODEOWNERS files, the last matching pattern takes precedence. With the global pattern on line 10 appearing after the specific patterns for /CHANGELOG.md and /website/, the global owners will override the specific owners for those paths.

To ensure that @Azure/aks-pm owns /CHANGELOG.md and /website/ while @palma21 and @Azure/aks-leads own everything else, the global pattern should be moved before the specific patterns (lines 4 and 7). The recommended order is:

  1. Global pattern first
  2. Specific patterns after (to override the global pattern)

This ensures that specific ownership rules take precedence over the global catch-all.
