`POST /orgs/{org}/repos`

Creates a new repository in the specified organization. The authenticated user must be a member of the organization.

OAuth app tokens and personal access tokens (classic) need the `public_repo` or `repo` scope to create a public repository, and `repo` scope to create a private repository.

For example, "mit" or "mpl-2.0".
  - `allow_squash_merge` boolean — Either `true` to allow squash-merging pull requests, or `false` to prevent squash-merging.

The default value for a squash merge commit title: - `PR_TITLE` - default to the pull request's title. - `COMMIT_OR_PR_TITLE` - default to the commit's title (if only one commit) or the pull request's title (when more than one commit).
