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, a Signed-off-by: line containing the real name of the contributor (not an alias) must be included at the bottom of each commit comment:
...
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 commit message which looks like:
| No Format |
