[elbe-devel] [PATCH v3] use SPDX tags in headers

Manuel Traut manut at linutronix.de
Fri Jan 5 21:57:38 CET 2018


Instead of copying the same license info into each file SPDX [0] should
be used.

This also updates the 'Copyright YYYY' line according to the file history
from git. The Copyright year is set to the last major change an author did
on a specific file. A single file can have multiple Copyright lines.

docs/*.txt examples/*.xml schema/* doesn't contain any license
information at the moment.

[0] https://spdx.org

Signed-off-by: Manuel Traut <manut at linutronix.de>

changes since v1:

 * spdx headers were missed in 2 files, these are added in v2:
    - commands/adjustpkgs.py
    - commands/updatepkg.py

changes since v2:

 * don't add copyright statements to files that had none before
     (contrib/dockerfile)
 * use GPL-3.0+ instead of GPL-3.0
 * use SPDX and Debian Identifier in debian/copyright, remove the license tags
     and reference to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-3
 * the license text in COPYING doesn't need to be changed, it covers GPL-3.0
     and GPL-3.0+
