Three subcommands to this script: 1) ./copyright_header.py report Examines git-tracked files with extensions that match: INCLUDE = ['*.h', '*.cpp', '*.cc', '*.c', '*.py'] Helps to: -> Identify source files without copyright -> Identify source files added with something other than "The Bitcoin Core developers" holder so we can be sure it is appropriate -> Identify unintentional typos in the copyright line 2) ./copyright_header.py update Replaces fix-copyright-headers.py. It does file editing in native python rather than subprocessing out to perl as was the case with fix-copyright-headers.py. It also shares code with the 'report' functions. 3) ./copyright_header.py insert Inserts a copyright header into a source file with the proper format and dates.
