Similarly to the Linux kernel development, each DAOS contributor should adhere to the Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO). This means developers making contributions certify that they wrote the patch or have the right to pass it on. To certify this, you include a Signed-off-by: line like this one at the bottom of your commit comments that contains your real name (not an alias):
...
Subsequent developers who co-author or otherwise help shepherd the contribution also add their own attestation so it’s not unusual to end up with a contribution which looks like:
