1 # This document lists the authors that have given voice to
2 # their decision regarding relicensing the GPL'd code from
3 # git.git to the GPL + gcc-exception license used by libgit2.
5 # Note that the permission is given for libgit2 use only. For
6 # other uses, you must ask each of the contributors yourself.
8 # To show the owners of a file in git.git, one can run the
11 # git blame -C -C -M -- file | \
12 # sed -e 's/[^(]*(\([^0-9]*\).*/\1/' -e 's/[\t ]*$//' | \
13 # sort | uniq -c | sort -nr
15 # If everyone on the list that produces are on the list in
16 # the recently added file "git.git-authors", it *should* be
17 # safe to include that code in libgit2, but make sure to
18 # read the file to ensure the code doesn't originate from
21 # The format of this list is
22 # "ok/no/ask/???"<tab>"Author"<space>"<email>"
24 # "ok" means the author consents to relicensing all their
25 # contributed code (possibly with some exceptions)
26 # "no" means the author does not consent
27 # "ask" means that the contributor wants to give/withhold
28 # his/her consent on a patch-by-patch basis.
29 # "???" means the person is a prominent contributor who has
30 # not yet made his/her standpoint clear.
31 # "ign" means the authors consent is ignored for the purpose
32 # of libification. This is because the author has contributed
33 # to areas that aren't interesting for the library.
35 # Please try to keep the list alphabetically ordered. It will
36 # help in case we get all 600-ish git.git authors on it.
38 # (Paul Kocher is the author of the mozilla-sha1 implementation
39 # but has otherwise not contributed to git.)
