Hi

Are you referring to the following text?
```
If you contribute code that isn't entirely your own (for example it may be partially derived
from other Open Source software) you are asked to add a comment into the source code to indicate the
origin and the license of the original code.
```

Because yes if you contribute code that isn't your own you should cite the source, I agree with
that.
However, I don't see how this is related to a DCO.

Kind regards
Niels
