# Patch files are particular: REUSE doesn't easily allow to
# track copyright and license of downstream modifications.
# See https://codeberg.org/fsfe/reuse-tool/issues/237
# Tagging *all patch files* with the correct copyright holder
# (this depends on the author) and the right license
# (this depends on the software modified) is a job on its own.
#
# Almost all patch files are found in the wild and pulled in by
# packagers: they didn't write them.
# In this case we believe the safest approach is to tag patches
# with no copyright at all, and mark them as public domain.
# This may not be technically true, because a patch most of the
# times edits licensed software, but the message is clear:
#    we don't own them.
#
# Developers that instead provide patches they wrote themselves
# to AerynOS are free to add SPDX headers to the patch, claiming
# copyright on them. The license though must match the
# upstream's license(s).
