Its actually a method where you fire 2 rounds north, 1 east, 3 south, and 5 west. Then fire straight up in the air between 5 to 8 rounds. Spin twice while saying a Hail Mary. Then rub frog lube on your epidermis.
Well, looks like everyone had their smartypants pills today, LOL.
Manufacturers will often have a break-in process to maintain optimum accuracy from a new barrel. Generally this would be for match rifle barrels. For general purposes and pretty much any pistol you could simply clean any residuals from manufacturing, then go shoot and clean at your normal intervals.
Here's how I break in my match rifle barrels:

Each manufacture has its own method.
Some depending on the level of hand lap they do to the bore need very little.
In a nut shell it's a simple process and most of the old timers I know would say you need a good brush and copper solvent.
1. Shot clean barrel
2 shots clean
3 shots clean
4 shots clean
5 shots clean.
Now at this point if your barrel is decent you should not see much in the ways of copper coming out on your patches.
Proceed through 6- 10 shots and call it done.
I have done my dad's method.
1 shot clean 2 shots clean 3 shots clean...see any excessive copper do a few more 3 shot groups clean

White Oak says to shoot it, clean, then shoot it some more. The less you stick a rod down the barrel the better from [most] accounts.
I called the manufacture of my match barrel.... basically they said the same thing.
