- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us

checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements
Closes#10205
Add licensing and copyright information for all files in this repository. This
either happens in the file itself as a comment header or in the file
`.reuse/dep5`.
This commit also adds a Github workflow to check pull requests and adapts
copyright.pl to the changes.
Closes#8869
Reported by the new script 'scripts/copyright.pl'. The script has a
regex whitelist for the files that don't need copyright headers.
Removed three (mostly usesless) README files from docs/
Closes#5141
- replace tabs with spaces where possible
- remove line ending spaces
- remove double/triple newlines at EOF
- fix a non-UTF-8 character
- cleanup a few indentations/line continuations
in manual examples
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/3037
I noticed that a patched cmake build would pass tests with a fake local
hostname, but the autotools build skips them:
got unexpected host name back, LD_PRELOAD failed
It turns out that -fvisibility=hidden hides the symbol, and since the
tests are not part of libcurl, it fails too. Just remove the LIBCURL
guard.
Broken since cURL 7.30 (commit 83a42ee20e,
"curl.h: stricter CURL_EXTERN linkage decorations logic").

All C and H files now (should) feature the proper project curl source
code header, which includes basic info, a copyright statement and some
basic disclaimers.
