Any contribution that is considerable enough to be considered as
intellectual property. Usually that is measured by size: a
contribution of say 50 lines applies. But it can also be measured by
intellectual content: a function of say 25 lines that implements an
algorithm applies. In the end it is decided by good judgement of the
committer who commits the contribution.
