Task description
While creating PRs, some commits are failing due to missing Signed-off-by line (DCO check).
Currently, this is not clearly mentioned in the contributing guidelines, so new contributors may face confusion.
We need to update the contributing guide to include DCO (Developer Certificate of Origin) requirement.
Solution
Add a small section in the contributing guidelines (under commit message or PR section):
-
Explain that every commit must include:
Signed-off-by: Your Name <your-email@example.com>
-
Mention using:
git commit -s
to automatically add sign-off
-
(Optional) Add a short note on how to fix missing sign-offs using rebase.
