I'm not sure if it was a deliberate change, I just noticed that most
new test files don't have a copyright notice anymore.
$ git grep "Copyright (c)" t/* | sed -E 's/.*?Copyright .c.
([[:digit:]]+).*?/\1/' | sort | uniq -c

While we may be adding less new test files, we definitely added a few
in 2017, for example t/t7521-ignored-mode.sh in 371c80c746 ("status:
test ignored modes", 2017-10-30), or t/t0025-crlf-renormalize.sh in
9472935d81 ("add: introduce "--renormalize"", 2017-11-16).
