+# Developer Certificate of Origin
+
+Your change description should use the standard format for a
+commit message, and must include your `Signed-off-by` signature.
+
+In order to keep track of who did what, all patches contributed must
+include a statement that to the best of the contributor's knowledge
+they have the right to contribute it under the specified license.
+
+The test for this is as specified in the [Developer's Certificate of
+Origin (DCO) 1.1](https://developercertificate.org/). The contributor
+certifies compliance by adding a line saying
+
+ Signed-off-by: Developer Name <developer@example.org>
+
+where `Developer Name` is the contributor's real name, and the email
+address is one the developer is reachable through at the time of
+contributing.
+
+```
+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.
