From 8693995fde71e8b028318e1e83bdbb6ae759335a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Carl Worth Date: Sat, 20 Feb 2010 11:41:24 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] test-lib.sh: Add explicit license detail, with change from GPLv2 to GPLv2+. This file has had no explicit license information noted in it, but has clearly been created and modified according to the terms of GPLv2 as with the rest of the git code base. The purpose of relicensing is to allow other GPLv3+ projects (in particular, the notmuch project: http://notmuchmail.org) to use this same test-suite structure and to contribute changes back as well. The relicensing was agreed to by Junio C Hamano here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.mail.notmuch.general/1389/focus=140156 and in follow-up messages by Sverre Rabbelier, Johannes Schindelin, Pierre Habouzit, and Johannes Sixt. Signed-off-by: Carl Worth Acked-by: Johannes Schindelin --- > Message-ID alone is not a good way to help people locate the request. > Please at least mention what mailing list the message was sent to; better > yet, do so like this: Done as requested. But while we're on the subject, let me at least make a case for communication by way of Message-ID. The URL above is good for as long as gmane continues to live, but that may not be as long as the git project (and its mailing-list archives) are interesting. Meanwhile, a message ID lives forever and can be used in multiple contexts. For example, gmane does already support message-ID-based URLs: http://mid.gmane.org/7vaav3bnr5.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org That interface happens to only display the single message, (requiring clicking on the subject to see the thread), but one can imagine gmane getting a similar interface to display the thread directly from the message ID. Meanwhile, people using systems like notmuch can also use the message ID directly to view the thread, with something like: notmuch show id:7vaav3bnr5.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org So I'm very much in favor of using message IDs more regularly, (and just expecting that users and their tools will be more accepting of them). But for now, you've hopefully got your commit message the way you want it. :-) t/test-lib.sh | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/t/test-lib.sh b/t/test-lib.sh index afd3053..004470f 100644 --- a/t/test-lib.sh +++ b/t/test-lib.sh @@ -2,6 +2,18 @@ # # Copyright (c) 2005 Junio C Hamano # +# This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify +# it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by +# the Free Software Foundation, either version 2 of the License, or +# (at your option) any later version. +# +# This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, +# but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +# MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
