14d3351b777 is described below
commit 14d3351b7775a6d4fb0e91d988e4483d1ab724ca
Author: Dianjin Wang <[email protected]>

Add the Greenplum attribution to NOTICE
Cloudberry derives a large part of its code from Greenplum Database, which
LICENSE has said since the beginning:
This product contains significant parts that were originally based on
software from VMware, Inc. or its affiliates.
Greenplum Database
Copyright (c) 2004-2020 VMware, Inc. or its affiliates. All Rights
Reserved.
NOTICE has never mentioned it. Greenplum is Apache-2.0 licensed and ships
a NOTICE file whose first lines are exactly that attribution, so section
4(d) of the license asks us to carry it forward.
The three satellite repositories already do. cloudberry-backup,
cloudberry-go-libs and cloudberry-pxf each name VMware in their NOTICE,
which leaves the repository with the deepest Greenplum lineage as the only
one that does not. This commit uses their wording and layout so the four
read the same way.
Only the attribution is taken. greenplum-db/gpdb-archive's NOTICE runs to
363 lines because it also carries the full license texts of PostgreSQL,
Python, pexpect, libsocket and curl; that material is not an attribution
notice, infra.apache.org/licensing-howto.html asks that NOTICE not collect
it, and Cloudberry already covers those components in LICENSE and
licenses/ where they belong.
NOTICE also gains the trailing newline it was missing.
