## DCO Sign off
|
||||
|
||||
All contributors to the project retain copyright to their work. However, to ensure
|
||||
that they are only submitting work that they have rights to, we require
|
||||
everyone to acknowledge this by signing their work.
|
||||
|
||||
Any copyright notices in this repo should specify the authors as
|
||||
"The cert-manager Authors".
|
||||
|
||||
To sign your work, just add a line like this at the end of your commit message:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Signed-off-by: Joe Bloggs <joe@example.com>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This can easily be done with the `--signoff` option to `git commit`.
|
||||
You can also mass sign-off a whole PR with `git rebase --signoff master`, replacing
|
||||
`master` with the branch you are creating a pull request again if not master.
|
||||
|
||||
By doing this you state that you can certify the following (from https://developercertificate.org/):

||||

||||

Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1
|
||||
|
||||
By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
|
||||
|
||||
(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I
|
||||
have the right to submit it under the open source license
|
||||
indicated in the file; or
|
||||
|
||||
(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best
|
||||
of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source
|
||||
license and I have the right under that license to submit that
|
||||
work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part
|
||||
by me, under the same open source license (unless I am
|
||||
permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated
|
||||
in the file; or
|
||||
|
||||
(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other
|
||||
person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified
|
||||
it.
|
||||
|
||||
(d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution
|
||||
are public and that a record of the contribution (including all
|
||||
personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is
|
||||
maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with
|
||||
this project or the open source license(s) involved.
