We use the Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) as an additional safeguard for the OpenEBS projects. This is a well established and widely used mechanism to assure that contributors have confirmed their right to license their contribution under the project's license. Please read dcofile. If you can certify it, then just add a line to every git commit message:
Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <[email protected]>
Use your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions). The email id should match the email id provided in your GitHub profile.
If you set your user.name
and user.email
in git config, you can sign your commit automatically with git commit -s
.
We use go fmt
to format and follow the coding style.
