- 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

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4975
- Add "libssh2" name to FindLibSSH2 library search.
On Windows systems, libSSH2 CMake installation may name the library
"LibSSH2".
Prior to this change cmake only checked for name "ssh2". On Linux that
works fine because it will prepend the "lib", but it doesn't do that on
Windows.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4804
