Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool. Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience. Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.
Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices. It also references version control
history for more precise information. Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.
Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing". The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically. Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files. Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.

Teach the ctest_update implementation to use the p4 command-line
client to perform updates and extract the list of changes.
Add a CTest.UpdateP4 test like those that exist already for the other
version control tools. Make the test available when p4 and the p4d
server are found. During the test launch p4d in the background to
serve a repository from the test directory. Then direct the client
toward this server for the duration of the test.
In CTest command-driven script mode we support starting without a source
tree. Previously the ctest_start() command would do some initialization
but could not do anything that required CTestConfig.cmake from the input
source tree. Later, ctest_update() would run CTEST_CHECKOUT_COMMAND to
create the source tree, and then re-initialize everything. This
delayed-initialization approach led to many complicated cases of which
only some worked. For example, the second initialization only worked
correctly in Nightly mode and simply failed for Experimental and
Continuous builds.
A simpler solution is to run CTEST_CHECKOUT_COMMAND during ctest_start()
and then have a single initialization path. In principle this change in
behavior could break scripts that set the checkout command after
ctest_start() but before ctest_update(). However, the convention we've
always followed has been to set all variables before ctest_start().
See issue #9450.
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License. We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked. We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.
This creates cmCTestHG to drive CTest Update handling on hg-based work
trees. Currently we always update to the head of the remote tracking
branch (hg pull), so the nightly start time is ignored for Nightly
builds. A later change will address this.
See issue #7879. Patch from Emmanuel Christophe. I modified the patch
slightly for code style, to finish up some parsing details, and to fix
the test.
This creates cmCTestBZR to drive CTest Update handling on bzr-based work
trees. Currently we always update to the head of the remote tracking
branch (bzr pull), so the nightly start time is ignored for Nightly
builds. A later change will address this. Patch from Tom Vercauteren.
See issue #6857.
This creates cmCTestGIT to drive CTest Update handling on git-based work
trees. Currently we always update to the head of the remote tracking
branch (git pull), so the nightly start time is ignored for Nightly
builds. A later change will address this. See issue #6994.
In cmCTestUpdateHandler, this factors out version control tool detection
from the monolithic cmCTestUpdateHandler::ProcessHandler to separate
methods. This also places priority on detection of the tool managing
the source tree since using any other tool will cause errors.
This moves the initial checkout code from the monolithic
cmCTestUpdateHandler::ProcessHandler to a separate method
cmCTestUpdateHandler::InitialCheckout.
This removes generation of some Update.xml content that is not used by
any Dart1, Dart2, or CDash servers:
- Revisions elements
- Directory attribute of File elements
- File elements within Author elements
The content was generated only because the original Dart1 Tcl client
generated it, but the content was never used.
