Law is usually about what's communicated. If "Apache-2" unambiguously refers to a particular license, I don't see the benefit in including a copy of it. (I'd go for "Apache-2.0", though – as they've done –, since that's the SPDX short identifier.)
- csande17 3y agoWell, the Apache License does say "You must give any other recipients of the Work or Derivative Works a copy of this License" when you're redistributing the code. Including a copy of the license in the repo makes it easier for people to comply with that requirement.
