Code of Conduct

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/managing-repository-settings/managing-the-commit-signoff-policy-for-your-repository

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

In the "Enabling or disabling compulsory commit signoffs for your repository" section, the instructions should clarify where to find the setting.

The current instruction says:

"Select Require contributors to sign off on web-based commits."

It would be clearer to say:

Under "Commits", select Require contributors to sign off on web-based commits.

Additional information

This small clarification would help users locate the setting more easily when following the instructions.
