In one of my favourite series of books a ground crew is loading anti-matter missiles while the pilot looks on. They're being careful but no-one is overly tense or worried, after all if by some chance the containment fields go off no one on the entire ship is ever going to realise. A nearby ship is certain to notice the explosion, but no one on the carrier will have a chance to feel anything.

Actually in a SciFi used system, the ordnance would be in a stasis field. That would make it inert.

Not in a hard SF setting. Besides, if you break the containment and it leaks out, your stasis field isn't going to help.

If you break containment on a stasis field, your a putz and don't belong traveling around in outer space.

If you share resupply with an ally, do their resupply depots resupply your ships every turn? Do planets get resupplied? or only the planet that has the resupply depot on it?

if you share supply, you will get from your friend, but he will have preference for his ships.
The only really effective way to get supplies is to go on his planets.
