## How to contribute
You are encouraged to contribute to the repository by **forking and submitting a pull request** signed by the contributor using the `git commit -s` command line option pursuant to the Developer's Certificate of Origin (DCO), available at [https://developercertificate.org](https://developercertificate.org), and licensed under the Apache License, version 2.0 (Apache-2.0).
Contributions can be made and signed using the GitHub user interface by simply
editing one or more files. Such contributions MUST NOT be made to the `main`
branch, but rather to a fork.
For significant changes, please open an issue first to discuss the proposed
changes to avoid re-work.
(If you are new to GitHub, you might start with a [basic
tutorial](https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git) and check out a more
detailed guide to [pull
requests](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/).)
Pull requests will be evaluated by the repository maintainers on a schedule and
if deemed beneficial will be committed to the `main` branch. Pull requests
should have a descriptive name, include an summary of all changes made in the
pull request description, and include unit tests that provide good coverage of
the feature or fix. A Continuous Integration (CI) pipeline is executed on all
PRs before review and contributors are expected to address all CI issues
identified. Where appropriate, PRs that impact the end-user and developer demos
in the repo should include updates or extensions to those demos to cover the new
capabilities.
If you would like to propose a significant change, please open an issue first to
discuss the work with the community.
