PACKAGE_NAME Conventionsection tovcpkg-ports/README.md,documenting the standardized snake_case naming for all 8 ecosystem ports and
tracking upstream adoption via filed issues.
Change Type
Affected Components
vcpkg-ports/README.md— convention docs, find_package() reference, migration guide, upstream tracking tableWhy
Problem Solved
Closes #543 — the convention established in #544 (portfile standardization) needed
to be documented so new ports and consumers follow it consistently. Upstream repos
that still use PascalCase CMake config paths needed issues filed to track when
wrapper code in portfiles can be removed.
