/claim #10

Summary

Adds a distinct Project Repository & Version Control slice for merge queue governance. This focuses on deciding whether scientific repository branches are ready to enter a protected merge queue before merge, tag, export, or citation.

The module is intentionally separate from existing broad repository ledgers, dataset diff engines, release embargo controls, notebook replay ledgers, schema migration checks, citation impact gates, provenance chains, and API/export contract verifiers. It checks branch references, author attribution, base freshness, protected component coverage, reviewer-role approvals, unresolved discussion gates, fork attribution, reproducibility evidence, content hashes, large-file/LFS routing, generated-output digests, semantic-version impact, and citation impact notes.
