I agree. Generally it is used to signify agreement to a developer |
9 |
certificate of origin. I would recommend using it for any other |
10 |
purpose, especially since there has been talk of instituting a DCO for |
11 |
Gentoo (based on the Linux DCO). We're not at the point of doing that |
12 |
just yet, but I wouldn't stick something entirely different in that |
13 |
field so that if we do institute a DCO we end up doing it differently |
14 |
than every other project that uses Git. |

If we want to capture this it should go in its own header. If the |
17 |
goal is to capture the repoman version, then I'd just capture the |
18 |
repoman version, or some identifier for the set of rules repoman was |
19 |
checking against at the moment (I'm not sure if repoman uses any kind |
20 |
of data updated outside of portage releases). |
