That was deliberately in patch 2 though. > Why bother with dual update issues? Well, the point is that patch 2 is scripted. Running the script as-is would update both the header and version output. That's actually what I did in the original patch I posted back in January. However, Joseph pointed out that mkheaders should only print the last year rather than a list of years or a range of years (apparently that's GNU policy): http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-01/msg00320.html so patch 1 was supposed to be changing that first. In other words, the copyright= suggestion seemed to be about having the same string in both the headers and output, which is what you also get by running the script. But apparently the copyright notice in the file header and the copyright notice that we print are supposed to be different. >> http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-01/msg00443.html > > Is the project fixincludes, inclhack, gcc or unnamed? > I think if you go to the trouble to clean all this up, > one should be picked and it should be made consistent. :) OK, fair enough. I guess I'll withdraw the fixincludes bits. Believe me, I don't find copyright year lists vs. ranges any more interesting than the next man. This really was supposed to be an attempt to make things simpler. :-) Thanks, Richard
