Yes.

"Once the cumulative amount of your submissions exceeds a dozen or so
lines of non-trivial changes, we will need you to assign to the FSF
the copyright for your contributions."


"In most cases, to start the assignment process you should download
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/plain/doc/Copyright/request-assign.future
and return the completed information to the address at the top."

(both from CONTRIBUTE in emacs top level source directory).





Ciao; Gregor
