Sections
To contribute to this project, you must agree to the Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) for each commit you make. The DCO is a simple statement that you, as a contributor, have the legal right to make the contribution.
See the DCO file for the full text of what you must agree to and how it works here. To signify that you agree to the DCO for contributions, you simply add a line to each of your git commit messages:
Signed-off-by: Jane Smith <[email protected]>
In most cases, you can add this signoff to your commit automatically with the
-s or --signoff flag to git commit. You must use your real name and a reachable email
address (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions). An example of signing off on a commit:
$ commit -s -m “my commit message w/signoff”
To ensure all your commits are signed, you may choose to add this alias to your global .gitconfig:
~/.gitconfig
[alias]
amend = commit -s --amend
cm = commit -s -m
commit = commit -s
We encourage contributions from the community.
