X-Git-Tag: v0.1~5651
X-Git-Url: http://erislabs.org.uk/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=284c3066bb305ced359bdc5df7095a53c71f619a;p=gnulib.git

maint.mk: simplify update-copyright rule

* top/maint.mk (update-copyright-local): Delete, and document how
to do it in cfg.mk instead.
(update-copyright-exclude-regexp): Delete, and document how to do
it in .x-update-copyright instead.
(update-copyright): Simplify, thanks to VC_LIST_EXCEPT.  Don't
exclude ChangeLog.
