Contributing

Anyone can contribute to this project and we welcome your contributions!

Contributor License Agreement

In order for us to accept pull requests, you must declare that you wrote the code or, at least, have the right to contribute it to the repo under the open source licence of the project in the repo.

  1. Read this (from developercertificate.org):
Developer Certificate of Origin
Version 1.1

Copyright (C) 2004, 2006 The Linux Foundation and its contributors.
660 York Street, Suite 102,
San Francisco, CA 94110 USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
license document, but changing it is not allowed.


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.
  1. If you can certify that it is true, sign off your git commit with a message like this:
Signed-off-by: Firstname Lastname <firstname.lastname@example.com>

You must use your real name (no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions, sorry).

Instead of typing that in every git commit message, your Git tools might let you automatically add the details for you. If you configure them to do that, when you issue the git commit command, just add the -s option.
