@@ -50,6 +50,10 @@ You can prevent yourself from accidentally pushing unsigned commits to Savannah
by using the pre-push Git hook called 'pre-push'. It's located at
'etc/git/pre-push'.
+When pushing a commit on behalf of somebody else, you should add a
+Signed-off-by line at the end of the commit log message (e.g. with ‘git am
+--signoff’). This improves tracking of who did what.

For anything else, please post to guix-patches@gnu.org and leave time for a
review, without committing anything. If you didn’t receive any reply
after two weeks, and if you’re confident, it’s OK to commit.
