I found a bug and I am willing to submit a patch (under winsup/cygwin). But before doing that, I was asked from my employer to clarify some points.https://cygwin.com/contrib.html says that the assignment form is required "if your change is going to be a significant one in terms of the size of your code changes". So the questions are:1. Who is going to determine if the change is "a significant one"? 2. In fact, my patch is just two lines of modifications, so I believe that it is not "a significant one". Is it okay to send such a small patch without the assignment form?
For Cygwin, the boundary between trivial and substantial is usually taken as ten lines. A two-line patch would probably be accepted without an assignment form.
