14To facilitate tracking of who did what, we've adopted a "sign-off"
15procedure for patches based on the procedure used by the Linux kernel
16project.
17
18The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the
19patch, which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right
20to pass it on as a patch under an appropriate license. The rules are
21pretty simple: if you can certify the below:
22
23        Developer's Certificate of Origin
24
25        By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
26
27	(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me,
28	    and I have the right to submit the contribution under each
29	    license indicated in, or otherwise designated as being
30	    applicable to, the file.
31
32        (b) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other
33            person who certified (a), and I have not modified it.
34
35        (c) I understand and agree that the project and the
36            contribution are public and that a record of the
37            contribution (including all personal information I submit
38            with it, including my sign-off) is maintained indefinitely
39            and may be redistributed.
40
41then you just add a line saying
42
43Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
44
45using your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.)
46
47git commit --signoff will add such a Signed-off-by line at the end of
48the commit log message for you.
