this recommendation has changed a bit with https://reuse.software. It is better to only have the SPDX header for each file, like # SPDX-FileCopyrightText: 2019 Example Organisation # SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-3.0-or-later And to have unchanged an unchanged licensing file in LICENSES/. This is better if you want to match a specific version of a license against its original. You can do it automatically if following the Reuse specification (3.2 is current). But even if you would to it manually, it is a lot of work if the license has been changed. It makes sense because Free Software products tend to have many more dependencies these days compared to previously years. So automatic detection of licenses is really helpful.
