IMO this doesn't express the underlying certification of complience
enough.

I'd suggest something like:

Make sure to express your agreement with the 'Developer Certificate of
Origin' <link-here> by adding your 'sign-off'.

I didn't think too much about the form, just wanted to put a reference
to the DCO paragraph where this is already well explained. That being
said, I agree the sentence could be better rephrased. Will send a new
version of the patch, thanks for your suggestion.
