It may synchronize the two files but it doesn't resolve the fact that two files exist that will need to remain synchronized. I had hoped the resolution would be for only a single license file to remain with the second one replaced by a symlink. |
As Samuel replied, it won't be possible to have a symlink. Sync'ing both files and then (hopefully) never having to touch them again is the best we can do for now. curl does the same thing. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
We have to update every file in the project (including changing this line) to match what we are using in LICENSE, so it should be:
Copyright (C) Samuel Henrique <samueloph@debian.org>, Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@debian.org> and many contributors, see the AUTHORS file.
Right?
The list of authors will only grow, so it's better to reference it from the LICENSE files.
Closes #20
