## Definitions

### `dev.knotless.redirect`

**Type**: `record`

Keyed by the old name. A rename repoints every redirect to the repository at its new name, so each is one hop. A repository created under the name replaces the redirect.

**Key**: `any`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `createdAt` | `string` (datetime) | Yes |  |
| `to` | `ref` → `dev.knotless.defs#repoRef` | Yes | The repository under the name it has now. |
