http://lindi.iki.fi/lindi/git/git-copyright-scan.git/ Normal invocation: $ git-copyright-scan File: abi-compliance-checker.pl 2009 Ryan Niebur File: LICENSE 2009 Ryan Niebur File: debian/copyright 2009 Paul Sladen File: debian/control 2009 Paul Sladen File: debian/rules 2009 Paul Sladen File: debian/watch 2009 Paul Sladen File: debian/dirs 2009 Paul Sladen File: debian/changelog 2009 Paul Sladen It is ok that very new commits are missing: $ git-copyright-scan --git-opt "--before 2010-01-01" Ignore minor contributors: $ git-copyright-scan --git-opt --before=2010-01-01 --min-lines 30 --min-commits 5 After you create debian/copyright git-copyright-scan will only list missing copyright holders so you can use it to verify that you have listed everyone. Also, you can use wildcards and it will understand those but does not generate wildcards itself. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
