Hi there! We are thrilled that you would like to contribute to Sarama.

Contributions to this project are [released][released] to the public under the project's [opensource license](LICENSE.md).
By contributing to this project you agree to the [Developer Certificate of Origin](https://developercertificate.org/) (DCO).
The DCO was created by the Linux Kernel community and is a simple statement that you, as a contributor, wrote or otherwise have the legal right to contribute those changes.

Contributors must _sign-off_ that they adhere to these requirements by adding a `Signed-off-by` line to all commit messages with an email address that matches the commit author:

```

```

Git even has a `-s` command line option to append this automatically to your commit message:

```
$ git commit -s -m 'This is my commit message'
```
