What I'm using in all projects that require signed-off-by is:

$ cat .git/hooks/commit-msg
#!/bin/sh

# Add Signed-off-by trailer.
sob=$(git var GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT | sed -n 's/^\(.*>\).*$/Signed-off-by: \1/p')
git interpret-trailers --in-place --trailer "$sob" "$1"

You can also use a pre-commit hook but the commit-msg hook is more
convenient.

And in github you can add the DCO application to the project:
https://github.com/apps/dco

Once installed it will check that all commits are signed off, and
provide helpful error
messages to contributors.
