Note that:
- The holder, on the copyright line, is the name of individual contributors and/or their company;
- When adding a significant new contribution to a file (i.e. more like
whole new features, rather than simple fixes), check whether there
already is a copyright for your copyright holder (see above):
- If there is one, mentioning any year, it is not required to add the current year (but this is allowed). In no case should you replace the existing year with the current one.
- If there is no line for your copyright holder, you should add one, with the current year.
For example, for a source file with multiple contributors spanning several years, the copyright lines may look as follows:
