Thanks for the patch, but please can we have a signed-off-by: line
Just for the record, what is the significance of a
'signed-off-by'? Is it something that hg generates or
something that you just manually type into the email when you
submit a patch?
I was just throwing up a page on submitting patches to the Xen project:
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/SubmittingXenPatches?action=show
I'd appreciate it if the Xen maintainers could take a look
and correct if needed. It has a link to the site referred
below that explains what the Developer's Certificate of Origin
is.
thanks,
Nivedita
The signed-off-by: line should be added by hand and is used to track the
provenance of patches. Please see
http://www.osdl.org/newsroom/press_releases/2004/2004_05_24_dco.html
Unless a patch is utterly trivial we need it signed off before we can
accept it.
Thanks,
Ian
