Due to legal reasons, contributors will be asked to accept a DCO before they submit the first pull request to this project. SAP uses the standard DCO text of the Linux Foundation.
This happens in an automated fashion during the submission process: the CLA assistant tool will add a comment to the pull request. Click it to check the DCO, then accept it on the following screen. CLA assistant will save this decision for upcoming contributions.
This DCO replaces the previously used CLA ("Contributor License Agreement") as well as the "Corporate Contributor License Agreement" with new terms which are well-known standards and hence easier to approve by legal departments. Contributors who had already accepted the CLA in the past may be asked once to accept the new DCO.
Please, read the How To Contribute guidance.
