+By contributing code to the Redis project in any form you agree to the Redis Software Grant and
+Contributor License Agreement attached below. Only contributions made under the Redis Software Grant
+and Contributor License Agreement may be accepted by Redis, and any contribution is subject to the
+terms of the Redis tri-license under RSALv2/SSPLv1/AGPLv3 as described in the LICENSE.txt file included in
+the Redis source distribution.
+
+# REDIS SOFTWARE GRANT AND CONTRIBUTOR LICENSE AGREEMENT
+
+To specify the intellectual property license granted in any Contribution, Redis Ltd., ("**Redis**")
+requires a Software Grant and Contributor License Agreement ("**Agreement**"). This Agreement is for
+your protection as a contributor as well as the protection of Redis and its users; it does not
+change your rights to use your own Contribution for any other purpose permitted by this Agreement.
+
+By making any Contribution, You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for the
+Contribution. Except for the license granted in this Agreement to Redis and the recipients of the
+software distributed by Redis, You reserve all right, title, and interest in and to Your
+Contribution.
+
+1. **Definitions**
+
+ 1.1. "**You**" (or "**Your**") means the copyright owner or legal entity authorized by the
+ copyright owner that is entering into this Agreement with Redis. For legal entities, the entity
+ making a Contribution and all other entities that Control, are Controlled by, or are under
+ common Control with that entity are considered to be a single contributor. For the purposes of
+ this definition, "**Control**" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction
+ or management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty
+ percent (50%) or more of the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
+
+ 1.2. "**Contribution**" means the code, documentation, or any original work of authorship,
+ including any modifications or additions to an existing work described above.
+
+2. "**Work**" means any software project stewarded by Redis.
+
+3. **Grant of Copyright License**. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You grant
+ to Redis and to the recipients of the software distributed by Redis a perpetual, worldwide,
+ non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare
+ derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute Your
+ Contribution and such derivative works.
+
+4. **Grant of Patent License**. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You grant to
+ Redis and to the recipients of the software distributed by Redis a perpetual, worldwide,
+ non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as stated in this section) patent
+ license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
+ where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable by You that are necessarily
+ infringed by Your Contribution alone or by a combination of Your Contribution with the Work to
+ which such Contribution was submitted. If any entity institutes patent litigation against You or
+ any other entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that your
+ Contribution, or the Work to which you have contributed, constitutes a direct or contributory
+ patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to the claimant entity under this Agreement
+ for that Contribution or Work terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+5. **Representations and Warranties**. You represent and warrant that: (i) You are legally entitled
+ to grant the above licenses; and (ii) if You are an entity, each employee or agent designated by
+ You is authorized to submit the Contribution on behalf of You; and (iii) your Contribution is
+ Your original work, and that it will not infringe on any third party's intellectual property
+ right(s).
+
+6. **Disclaimer**. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contribution, except to the
+ extent You desire to provide support. You may provide support for free, for a fee, or not at all.
+ Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contribution on an
+ "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied,
+ including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT,
+ MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
+
+7. **Enforceability**. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as creating any joint venture,
+ employment relationship, or partnership between You and Redis. If any provision of this Agreement
+ is held to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected.
+ This represents the entire agreement between You and Redis relating to the Contribution.
+
+# IMPORTANT: HOW TO USE REDIS GITHUB ISSUES
+
+GitHub issues SHOULD ONLY BE USED to report bugs and for DETAILED feature
+requests. Everything else should be asked on Discord:
+
+ https://discord.com/invite/redis
+
+PLEASE DO NOT POST GENERAL QUESTIONS that are not about bugs or suspected
+bugs in the GitHub issues system. We'll be delighted to help you and provide
+all the support on Discord.
+
+There is also an active community of Redis users at Stack Overflow:
+
+ https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/redis
+
+Issues and pull requests for documentation belong on the redis-doc repo:
+
+ https://github.com/redis/redis-doc
+
+If you are reporting a security bug or vulnerability, see SECURITY.md.
+
+# How to provide a patch for a new feature
+
+1. If it is a major feature or a semantical change, please don't start coding
+straight away: if your feature is not a conceptual fit you'll lose a lot of
+time writing the code without any reason. Start by posting in the mailing list
+and creating an issue at Github with the description of, exactly, what you want
+to accomplish and why. Use cases are important for features to be accepted.
+Here you can see if there is consensus about your idea.
+
+2. If in step 1 you get an acknowledgment from the project leaders, use the
+ following procedure to submit a patch:
+
+ a. Fork Redis on GitHub ( https://docs.github.com/en/github/getting-started-with-github/fork-a-repo )
+ b. Create a topic branch (git checkout -b my_branch)
+ c. Push to your branch (git push origin my_branch)
+ d. Initiate a pull request on GitHub ( https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request )
+ e. Done :)
+
+3. Keep in mind that we are very overloaded, so issues and PRs sometimes wait
+for a *very* long time. However this is not a lack of interest, as the project
+gets more and more users, we find ourselves in a constant need to prioritize
+certain issues/PRs over others. If you think your issue/PR is very important
+try to popularize it, have other users commenting and sharing their point of
+view, and so forth. This helps.
+
+4. For minor fixes - open a pull request on GitHub.
+
+Additional information on the RSALv2/SSPLv1/AGPLv3 tri-license is also found in the LICENSE.txt file.
