I think I prefer the SPDX comments inside the .gitgnore file though,
even if just for uniformity with the rest.
I've expressed my opinion. The rest of you can vote on it.
Comments in .html files should probably go below the <html> tag. See
e.g.https://stackoverflow.com/questions/941100/can-comments-appear-before-the-doctype-declaration
Does the reuse tool place HTML comments before the <html> tag? That
should probably be fixed in the tool.
for more natural looking notices. E.g.
# Copyright 2015 Arthur A. Gleckler<[email protected]>
# SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
I left the reuse tool take care of producing these (using something like
"reuse annotate -lMIT -y2015 -c'Arthur A. Gleckler<[email protected]>'
.gitignore")
When there are multiple copyright holders, they are grouped together as
in:
# SPDX-FileCopyrightText: 2015 Some One <email1>
# SPDX-FileCopyrightText: 2018 Another One <email2>
#
# SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
I don't feel strongly about it; I prefer to stick to what the tool
produces as it makes my life easier.
This works: reuse annotate example.scm --copyright "Some One" --license
MIT --copyright-style string --merge-copyrights
It produces:
; Copyright 2023 Some One
;
; SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
It uses ";" instead of the more sensible ";;" or ";;;".
To get rid of the blank line, it seems we would have to use a custom
template that has to be copied into each SRFI's repo. Unwieldy.
