| Re: [technology-pmc] git sign-off on contributions |
Hi PMC,I recognize this list is more specific than need be for this question, so feel free to tell me where I should have directed it.I haven’t yet accepted new code from people other than me to Spatial4j since joining LocationTech, so this question is a newbie one. I’ve got someone (not a committer) sending a pull request to me on GitHub for a feature I’d like to eventually merge. It’s a change to existing source with license headers already there. He didn’t know to use the “-s” sign off git flag. What should be done? Obviously he could redo it but we don’t want to make contributing a PITA.I’ve reviewed the “Eclipse Legal Process Poster” http://www.eclipse.org/legal/EclipseLegalProcessPoster.pdf and it appears this contributor is required to create a Bugzilla/Gerrit account then create an issue and attach the code there (hopefully referencing via URL is acceptable?). And then he must submit a CLA.Note this contribution is very small, like 67 lines of code according to GitHub’s summary. I thought I heard somewhere about a line-of-code barrier before going through all this ceremony; is that true?~ David SmileyFreelance Apache Lucene/Solr Search Consultant/Developer
