What else is in tools/ ? If it's only that file, then it's not missing
anything:
-c=regex --check=regex
Specify a pattern against which filenames will be matched in order to
decide which files to check the license of.
The default includes common source files.
The name "git2cl" does not match "common source files".
Actually, I'm assuming that there /is/ only "git2cl" in tools/,
otherwise the command you quoted still wouldn't have displayed it; see
#526701 for a discussion as to whether that's a good idea.
In summary, I don't think there's a licensecheck bug here. It's not
doing what you expected, admittedly, but it is doing what it's
documented as doing. :)
