Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct

This project operates a code of conduct in order to ensure that the project remains an inclusive and supportive environment for anyone and everyone who wishes to contribute to the project in any way. You can find a copy of the code of conduct in the main repository for the project, SidingsMedia/Sidings-Media-Railway-Controller. By participating in this project you agree to abide by its terms.

Developer Certificate of Origin

In order to ensure that all of the code contributed to the repositories is the work of the contributor or that the contributor has the correct permissions to submit the work. It is the same DCO that is used for the Linux kernel and it can be found in the file called DCO_V1.1 in the root of each official SMRC repository. You can also see the terms at developercertificate.org. To demonstrate that you accept the DCO and that you are permitted to contribute the work, you should add a sign off line at the end of your commit message in the following form:

Signed-off-by: Full Name <email>

You can automatically add this to the end of your commit message by adding the --signoff option to git commit. If you use VS Code then you can enable the git.alwaysSignOff option in your settings. For more information on how to contribute to a project that uses a DCO you should see the Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) documentation made available by The Linux Foundation.
