Contributions

Contributions are welcome to the OpenHPC project and can take many forms. General contribution information can be found in our CONTRIBUTING.md. New component additions can be submitted for consideration at https://github.com/openhpc/submissions. Changes to existing packaging or development efforts to the OpenHPC GitHub repository can also be submitted in the form of pull requests.

Guidelines for Pull Requests:

• OpenHPC requires new commits to include a "Signed-off-by" token in the commit message (typically enabled via the git commit -s option), indicating your agreement to the projects's Developer's Certificate of Origin and compatability with the project LICENSE:

By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:

(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I have the right to submit it under the open source license indicated in the file; or

(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source license and I have the right under that license to submit that work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part by me, under the same open source license (unless I am permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated in the file; or

(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified it.

(d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution are public and that a record of the contribution (including all personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with this project or the open source license(s) involved.

• Pull requests should, in general, be baselined against the next target release branch. For example, if the current OpenHPC release is v1.3.3, choose the next version in progress as the baseline (v1.3.4 in this case).
