) add COPYRIGHT*.html files to the rustc binary distribution ) add contents of LICENSE folder to dist tarballs, because some of our in-tree licences will require that the license text is reproduced. ) The wording of COPYRIGHT is adjusted to not include license text (`reuse` ensures that it's in the LICENSE folder) ) A blanket copyright notice is added to LICENCE-MIT as required by the text. The general approach is that the license statements are now compiled using a tool in CI (generate-copyright), and you get either: * the source code (COPYRIGHT, LICENCE-APACHE, LICENCE-MIT, REUSE.toml and the LICENCES folder), or * the compiled version (COPYRIGHT.html, COPYRIGHT-library.html and the LICENCES folder).

We track licenses for third-party materials in two ways:
|
|
|
|
* We use [REUSE](https://reuse.software) to track license information for
|
|
in-tree source files - both those authored by the Rust project and those
|
|
authored by third parties. See `REUSE.toml`, and our cached output of the
|
|
`reuse` tool which is committed to `license-metadata.json`.
|
|
* We use `cargo` to track license information for out-of-tree dependencies.
|
|
|
|
These two sources of information are collected by the tool `generate-copyright`
|
|
into a file called `COPYRIGHT.html`, which is shipped with each binary release
|
|
of Rust. Please refer to that file for detailed information as to the components of
|
|
any given Rust release. We also produce a `COPYRIGHT-library.html` file which only
|
|
covers the subset of source code used in the Rust Standard Library, as opposed
|
|
to the toolchain as a whole.
