It happened to me almost dozen times now, so here's my rage :D
I want to send a pull request to a Fedora project*, I clone it, fork it, push to
the fork, open a PR and there it goes:
! This repo requires all commits to have the Signed-off-by whatnot in them !
So I have to go again, amend with -s, push force. That is tedious and at least I
know how to do that. I assume there are people who don't.
Can we stop this nonsense? I usually smuggle something like:
Signed-off-by: Stop This <pretty@xxxxxxx>
And nobody ever cares! The thing is enforced only because it can be enforced.
The line in that commit message is totally useless and doesn't provide any
benefit, just pain. I've signed the Fedora Project Contributor Agreement. That
should be enough.
Now a bit more serious:
What information am I missing? Why do Fedora upstreams enforce this?
Thanks
(* last time it was simple-koji-ci, but it's also fedpkg and other projects on
pagure.io)
