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names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.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.
Commit 17bbf6af (CPackWIX: Implement new CPACK_WIX_SKIP_PROGRAM_FOLDER
feature) generates GUIDs for most but not all components
when the feature is active.
Generate the remaining GUIDs as well.

Since commit v3.6.0-rc1~339^2 (CPack: Fix CPACK_INSTALL_CMAKE_PROJECTS
SubDirectory (4th) option, 2016-02-18) we now honor the "Directory"
option of this variable. Prior to that commit the value was not used
so projects may have used a placeholder value like `.` instead of `/`.
Treat `.` the same as `/` to restore compatibility with such projects.
Fixes#16205.
Replace use of cmsys::auto_ptr with a CM_AUTO_PTR macro that maps to
our own implementation adopted from the KWSys auto_ptr implementation.
Later we may be able to map CM_AUTO_PTR to std::auto_ptr on compilers
that do not warn about it.
Automate the client site conversions:
git grep -l auto_ptr -- Source/ | grep -v Source/kwsys/ | xargs sed -i \
's|cmsys::auto_ptr|CM_AUTO_PTR|;s|cmsys/auto_ptr.hxx|cm_auto_ptr.hxx|'
Run clang-tidy's modernize-use-override checker. This checker must have
issues in version 3.8. It has way too little matches. And it adds
override to destructors. Revert the changes on the destructors and
change override to CM_OVERRIDE.
63e5eb5f Help: Add notes for 'productbuild' topic
2e3c67d1 productbuild: Add new productbuild cpack generator.
50a3d340 PackageMaker: factor out common code for creating pkg files.
Use clang-tidy's readability-simplify-boolean-expr checker.
After applying the fix-its, revise all changes *very* carefully.
Be aware of false positives and invalid changes.
Use clang-tidy's performance-unnecessary-value-param checker to find
value parameter declarations of expensive to copy types that are not
modified inside the function. Ignore findings in kwsys.
After applying the fix-its, manually change `const T&` to `T const&`.
