The kind of copies one does to be safe in the case the original repo disappears for some reason. Ironic.

  Usually using the "fork" option suffices... these changed the original repo to remove GPL and such.

    According to the notice, they were unchanged or mostly unchanged forks of the master.

  I presume one wouldn't strip copyright in those cases.
  • tacone 11y ago
    They didn't. The master repository did, they probably weren't aware of the issue.

      Thank goodness GitHub doesn't employ the YouTube 3-copyright-strike system. Otherwise there would actually be an issue with this.
