Hello, assume I provide a patch for memory leak and do not `git -s` it. Do I own the fix and have the copyright on it, so that nobody else can steal the patch, as long as I do not provide a DCO?
https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/pull/3374 from February 2021 provides code changes from me, it was not merged. https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/pull/3598 from August 2021 provides absolutely the same code changes, and fixes one more problem at the same time. Who owns the code changes? The one who published them first, or the one who committed them? Can I squeeze now somebody, for using my code, without my explicit agreement? How does the DCO help here? In fact DCO does raise for this case questions, which problems would not have existed, if the DCO concept has not existed.
