14.7 Unsorted policies
Language-specific mailing lists
A translator can ask for an official lilypond-xy mailing list once they’ve finished all “priority 1” translation items.
Performing yearly copyright update (“grand-replace”)
At the start of each year, copyright notices for all source files should be refreshed by running the following command from the top of the source tree:
make grand-replace
Internally, this invokes the script ‘scripts/build/grand-replace.py’, which performs a regular expression substitution for old-year -> new-year wherever it finds a valid copyright notice.
Note that snapshots of third party files such as ‘texinfo.tex’ should
not be included in the automatic update; ‘grand-replace.py’ ignores these
files if they are listed in the variable copied_files.
Push git access
Git access is given out when a contributor has a significant record of patches being accepted without problems. If existing developers are tired of pushing patches for a contributor, we’ll discuss giving them push access. Unsolicited requests from contributors for access will almost always be turned down.
