Explain on the about page when the code-owners plugin should/shouldn't be used This is already explained in the how to use guide, but users often miss this information there. The about page is the entry page of the code-owners documentation (it is integrated as the first section into the index page) and what users that are interested in using the code-owners plugin read first, hence users are unlikely to miss this information here.

This plugin provides support for defining code owners for files in a repository.
If the code-owners plugin is enabled, changes can only be submitted if all touched files are covered by approvals from code owners.
For a detailed description of the plugin functionality please refer to the plugin documentation.
IMPORTANT: Before installing/enabling the plugin follow the instructions from the setup guide.
NOTE: The plugin documentation only renders correctly when the plugin is installed in Gerrit and the documentation is accessed via https:///plugins/code-owners/Documentation/index.html. If you want to read the documentation before installing the plugin, you can find it properly rendered here.
