### Before you contribute
Before we can use your code, you must sign the
[Google Individual Contributor License Agreement]
(https://cla.developers.google.com/about/google-individual)
(CLA), which you can do online. The CLA is necessary mainly because you own the
copyright to your changes, even after your contribution becomes part of our
codebase, so we need your permission to use and distribute your code. We also
need to be sure of various other things—for instance that you'll tell us if you
know that your code infringes on other people's patents. You don't have to sign
the CLA until after you've submitted your code for review and a member has
approved it, but you must do it before we can put your code into our codebase.
Before you start working on a larger contribution, you should get in touch with
us first through the issue tracker with your idea so that we can help out and
possibly guide you. Coordinating up front makes it much easier to avoid
frustration later on.
Any contribution that you make to this repository will
be under the Apache 2 License, as dictated by that
[license](http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0):
```
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
```
### Developer Certificate of Origin
Contributors must sign-off each commit by adding a `Signed-off-by: ...`
line to commit messages to certify that they have the right to submit
the code they are contributing to the project according to the
[Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO)](https://developercertificate.org/).
You can sign-off a commit via `git commit -s`.
### Code reviews
All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We
use Github pull requests for this purpose.
### The small print
Contributions made by corporations are covered by a different agreement than
the one above, the
[Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement]
(https://cla.developers.google.com/about/google-corporate).
All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review.
We use GitHub pull requests for this purpose.
