The master repository is available at + + git://git.pengutronix.de/git/ptxdist.git + +Patch Guideline +--------------- + +Patches for PTXdist are always welcome. If you created a patch, send it to +ptxdist@pengutronix.de for review. Each patch accepted into the master +repository must be certified to be compatible with PTXdist's license (GPL v2, +see COPYING). To do this you have to sign your patches (or the ones you apply +and/or forward). If you can certify the below: + + 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. + +then you just add a line saying + + Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org> + +using your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.) at the +end of the patch description. + +There are some more usual tags (like Acked-by or Reported-by) which only have +informational character and so are not formally specified here. See the Linux +kernel (file: Documentation/SubmittingPatches) for how they are used here, too. |
