As of Jun 8, 2022, DCO (signed-off-by) in commits via web ui is now GA in GitHub. For more information, see todogroup/gh-issues#50 (comment) and https://github.blog/changelog/2022-06-08-admins-can-require-sign-off-on-web-based-commits/
This browser extension adds DCO Signed-off-by line to commits made with the GitHub browser UI.
This DCO feature is currently in private beta for native GitHub UI! 😮
Follow and contribute to this issue for updates todogroup/gh-issues#50 Once this feature is GA natively in GitHub UI, this extension will be deprecated and this repo will be archived 🤞🙂

Your signoff should now prepopulate in the GitHub UI commit optional extended description textarea:
See git help commit:
-s, --signoff
Add Signed-off-by line by the committer at the end of the commit log
message. The meaning of a signoff depends on the project, but it typically
certifies that committer has the rights to submit this work under the same
license and agrees to a Developer Certificate of Origin (see
http://developercertificate.org/ for more information).
For CLI git, see this gist.
