Hi Guix,
The "The Perfect Set-Up" chapter of guixes manual describes how to set up copyright.el to support the process of inserting/updating ones copyright header; however it doesn't answer: - why a copyright header has to be inserted - if a copyright header has to be inserted for all files that are subject to changes (is there a treshold? can it be left out for minor changes to files etc.?) of a sent patch. I'm not too knowledgable in copyright law to answer these things myself and would guess, that explaining this briefly could be useful in guixes documentation on contributions. -- Kind regards, Wilko Meyer w...@wmeyer.eu
