  13 To improve tracking of contributions to this project we use the DCO 1.1
  14 and use a "sign-off" procedure for all changes going into the branch.
  15
  16 The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the
  17 commit which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right
  18 to pass it on as an open-source contribution.
