Copyright and licenses

Every commit (even merge commits) must have a DCO sign-off. See Developer Certificate Of Origin.

  • Run build/check-copyright-notices to check
  • Run build/check-copyright-notices --fix to add the appropriate statement to files where it's missing (please preview result before committing!)
