Remove the copyright year from file headers #8648
Conversation
|
It was planned to not ever change the header initially: #1234 (comment) :( Dunno who came up with an idea to bump copyright year once again and then do it on regular basis. Somehow many other products don't have legal issues which require years to be specified in each single file. |

That's really impressive 👍 So, there will be separate micro-release with these changes or previous one could be reverted? My best expectation was for it to be postponed till 2018 and then changed last time, I'm glad I was wrong :) |

This removes the license years from all file headers and instead adds it to the COPYING.txt file, which is referenced from the file headers themselves.
This will prevent mass changes to files each year, as we will only need to update the year in COPYING.txt.
