repo
Defaulter's lost vehicle
Repo is short for repossession—the act of taking back property when a buyer defaults on payments.
Cars are most often repossessed: They came to repo his truck at 3 a.m.
A repo man recovers such property professionally.
In finance, repo also means repurchase agreement, a short-term borrowing arrangement where securities are sold with an agreement to buy them back.
In software development, repo is short for repository—a storage location for code: Clone the repo and submit a pull request.
