These are test-only changes to have tests that rely on the contents of the top-level README and COPYING files use smaller artificial test data instead. The v2 of this series proposed to follow this with updates to the COPYING file. I asked the SFC folks about that and those comments might result in an eventual update to those files to clarify certain things with git's licencing. But let's not have any such future update be larger because we needed to deal with this test-only implementation detail first, and untangle the dependency the tests have on those top-level in-tree files. As the range diff shows this is the exact same series as v2, except that the previous 3-5/5 patches have been discarded, this is just the previous 1-2/5. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-v2-0.5-00000000000-20211005T170031Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason (2): "lib-diff" tests: make "README" and "COPYING" test data smaller tests: stop using top-level "README" and "COPYING" files t/.gitattributes | 1 - t/lib-diff-data.sh | 22 ++ t/lib-diff.sh | 2 + t/lib-diff/COPYING | 361 ------------------------------ t/lib-diff/README | 46 ---- t/t4003-diff-rename-1.sh | 4 +- t/t4005-diff-rename-2.sh | 4 +- t/t4007-rename-3.sh | 5 +- t/t4008-diff-break-rewrite.sh | 4 +- t/t4009-diff-rename-4.sh | 4 +- t/t4022-diff-rewrite.sh | 6 +- t/t4023-diff-rename-typechange.sh | 11 +- t/t7001-mv.sh | 5 +- t/t7101-reset-empty-subdirs.sh | 11 +- 14 files changed, 53 insertions(+), 433 deletions(-) create mode 100644 t/lib-diff-data.sh delete mode 100644 t/lib-diff/COPYING delete mode 100644 t/lib-diff/README Range-diff against v2: 1: f834cf74873 = 1: 02342124582 "lib-diff" tests: make "README" and "COPYING" test data smaller 2: f7cd2f31ccb = 2: f555ebb7055 tests: stop using top-level "README" and "COPYING" files 3: 44375bece46 < -: ----------- COPYING: remove mention of GPLv3, clarify sub-project COPYING 4: ccb26274cc6 < -: ----------- COPYING: move GPL text to a "GPL-2.0" file 5: 6fe2e601b13 < -: ----------- GPL-2.0: update to byte-for-byte match the FSF's version -- 2.33.1.1338.g20da966911a
