# Contributing
|
|
|
|
Patches are welcome. How the project works, what proof a change needs, and the
|
|
writing rules are on the documentation site:
|
|
<https://docs.forgefirm.org/developers/contributing/>.
|
|
|
|
## Sign your work
|
|
|
|
Every commit carries a `Signed-off-by` line:
|
|
|
|
Signed-off-by: Your Name <your.email@example.com>
|
|
|
|
`git commit -s` adds it, using your `user.name` and `user.email`. Use your real
|
|
name; an anonymous or pseudonymous sign-off certifies nothing.
|
|
|
|
The line certifies the Developer Certificate of Origin, version 1.1, below. It
|
|
is the same statement the Linux kernel and grblHAL use. It is not a copyright
|
|
assignment: you keep the copyright in what you write, and your contribution
|
|
comes in under the license of the repository you are contributing to.
|
|
|
|
You do not add a copyright line for a patch. A change to an existing file
|
|
leaves its header alone. If you write a whole new file, put your own name in
|
|
its copyright line, or leave the line out; either way the file carries an
|
|
`SPDX-License-Identifier` for the repository's license.
|
|
|
|

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.
