2. Merge Request Process

Contributor uses his or her own source code repository to prepare changes to the repository as a fork. Contributor submits merge requests into the software merge review application (https://lab.nexedi.com). The merge request becomes visible to the public. Nexedi core team approves or rejects the merge request. In case of rejection, a rationale is provided.

3. Treatment of Account

Contributor will not allow anyone other than the Contributor to use the merge request login to access the merge request application. Should Contributor become aware of any such use, Contributor will immediately notify NEXEDI SA by email. Until such notice is received, Committer will be presumed to have taken all actions made through Contributor's account. Nexedi SA will have complete control and discretion over capabilities assigned to Contributor's account, and may disable Contributor's account for any reason at any time. Contributor's name and account will be visible worldwide via the Internet.

4. Legal Effect of Contribution

Upon submitting a change or new work to the merge review application (a "Contribution"), you agree to assign, and hereby do assign, a one-half interest of all right, title and interest in and to copyright and other intellectual property rights with respect to your new and original portions of the Contribution to NEXEDI SA. You and NEXEDI SA each agree that the other shall be free to exercise any and all exclusive rights in and to the Contribution, without accounting to one another, including without limitation, the right to license the Contribution to others under the General Public License. This agreement shall run with title to the Contribution. NEXEDI SA does not convey to you any right, title or interest in or to the Program or such portions of the Contribution that were taken from the Program. Your transmission of a password to NEXEDI SA merge review and marks of identification within the Contribution itself constitute your authentication of intent to contribute and your assignment of the work in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

5. License Terms

Code committed to the source repository ( Committed Code ) must be governed by the General Public License (GPLv3 or later) or by the license which already applies to the code which has been modified.
