# ViPE Contribution Rules
|
|
|
|
## Coding Guidelines
|
|
|
|
- Please follow the existing conventions in the relevant file, submodule, module, and project when you add new code or when you extend/fix existing functionality.
|
|
|
|
- Make sure that you can contribute your work to open source (no license and/or patent conflict is introduced by your code). You will need to [`sign`](#signing-your-work) your commit.
|
|
|
|
- Thanks in advance for your patience as we review your contributions; we do appreciate them!
|
|
|
|
## Signing Your Work
|
|
|
|
* We require that all contributors "sign-off" on their commits. This certifies that the contribution is your original work, or you have rights to submit it under the same license, or a compatible license.
|
|
|
|
* Any contribution which contains commits that are not Signed-Off will not be accepted.
|
|
|
|
* To sign off on a commit you simply use the `--signoff` (or `-s`) option when committing your changes:
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ git commit -s -m "Add cool feature."
|
|
```
|
|
This will append the following to your commit message:
|
|
```
|
|
Signed-off-by: Your Name <your@email.com>
|
|
```
|
|
|
