update copyright years to include 2011

[mvngu]

As the subject says. The relevant files for which the copyright years need to be updated are:

• devel/sage-main/doc/common/conf.py
• data/extcode/sage/ext/mac-app/Sage-Info.plist
• README.txt

Apply:

1. Apply trac-10865_copyright-doc.patch to sage-main.
2. Apply trac-10865_copyright-macapp.patch to the data/extcode repository.
3. Apply trac-10865_copyright-README.patch to SAGE-ROOT.

[jdemeyer]

SAGE_ROOT now has a hg repository (#9433), so you should use that to update the README.txt. i.e.: use the usual procedure with hg commands to produce a patch.

Mariah: If you add the ticket number to your patch and provide a proper commit merge, then your patch should be OK by me. Of course, someone other than myself needs to give the go-ahead for the remaining two patches.

Minh - Would you please review trac-10865_copyright-README.patch

I can give trac-10865_copyright-doc.patch a positive review. However trac-10865_copyright-macapp.patch needs work - it does not apply because the path is wrong. You have sage/ext/mac-app/Sage-Info.plist when I believe you mean data/extcode/sage/ext/mac-app/Sage-Info.plist

Notice the following line in your patch for the README file:

# Trac 10865: update copyright years to include 2011

This would be interpreted by Mercurial as a comment on a patch file, and not as a commit message as you intended. The hash "#" followed by a space is Mercurial's magic pattern for delimiting a comment. For example:

[mvngu@sage sage-4.7.alpha4]$ hg qimport http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/raw-attachment/ticket/10865/trac-10865_copyright-README.patch && hg qpush 
adding trac-10865_copyright-README.patch to series file
applying trac-10865_copyright-README.patch
now at: trac-10865_copyright-README.patch
[mvngu@sage sage-4.7.alpha4]$ hg tip

Thus the content for the "summary:" line should be

summary:     Trac 10865: update copyright years to include 2011

instead of

summary:     imported patch trac-10865_copyright-README.patch

To rectify the situation, simply remove the string "# ".

I can give trac-10865_copyright-doc.patch a positive review. However trac-10865_copyright-macapp.patch needs work - it does not apply because the path is wrong. You have sage/ext/mac-app/Sage-Info.plist when I believe you mean data/extcode/sage/ext/mac-app/Sage-Info.plist

The given path is wrong if you apply the patch from SAGE_ROOT. Note that SAGE_ROOT was recently put under revision control, whereas data/extcode has been under revision control for many years now. During that time, data/extcode was and still is its own Mercurial repository, separate from everything else that is under revision control. So to apply a patch to data/extcode, you would need to do

$ cd data/extcode

and then apply the patch. Here's an illustration:
