- 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
- the year range is kept in COPYING
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
- remove check for unsupported old CMake versions
- do not link to c-ares library twice
- modernize custom Find modules
- FindLibSSH2:
- pass version to FPHSA to show it in the output
- use LIBSSH2_VERSION define to extract the version number in
one shot. This variable exists in the header for 10 years.
- remove unneeded code
- FindNGHTTP2.cmake:
- drop needless FPHSA argument
- mark found variables as advanced
- FindNSS.cmake:
- show version number
- FindCARES.cmake:
- drop default paths
- use FPHSA instead of checking things by hand
- remove needless explict variable dereference
- simplify count_true()
- allow all policies up to version 3.16 to be set to NEW
- do not rerun check for -Wstrict-aliasing=3 every time
In contrast to every other compiler flag this has a = in it, which CMake
can't have in a variable name.
- only read the interesting strings from curlver.h
