As a web IDE committer I want to sign my commits so I can certify that the origin of the code is mine

Suggested

Modify the "Commit" button to have an additional dropdown selection for "Commit and Signoff" (like Comment | v on Issues). This should be set the default if the project requires signing-off

Selecting this option would append the string Signed-off-by: {first_name} {last_name} <{commit_email}> to the commit when submitted.

Alternatively

We could also make sure that if projects have the push rule set, the textbox is prefilled with signed-off-by:

Requirements

We would need a designer/UX team member to look at this and come up with some proposals.
