The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.
Follow the SPDX license specification: https://spdx.org/licenses
- C/C++/objc/objc++
- Python
- Shell Scripts
- CMake, GNUmakefile
While most of the source tree has been included
- `./extern/` was left out.
- `./intern/cycles` & `./intern/atomic` are also excluded because they
use different header conventions.
doc/license/SPDX-license-identifiers.txt has been added to list SPDX all
used identifiers.

Using BMesh operators through the edit-mesh API created a full copy
of the mesh so it was possible to restore the mesh in case
one of the operators raised an error.
Remove support for automatic backup/restore from the EDBM_op_* API's
as it adds significant overhead and was rarely used.
Operators that need this can use the BMBackup API to backup & restore
the mesh in case of failure.
Add warning levels to BMO_error_raise so operators can report problems
without it being interpreted as a request to cancel the operation.
For high-poly meshes creating and freeing a full copy is an expensive
operation, removing this gives a speedup of ~1.77x for most operators
except for "connect_verts" / "connect_vert_pair"
which still uses this functionality.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
- When returning the number of items in a collection use BLI_*_len()
- Keep _size() for size in bytes.
- Keep _count() for data structures that don't store length
(hint this isn't a simple getter).
See P611 to apply instead of manually resolving conflicts.
Setting all values of a tuple is such a common operation that it deserves its own macro.
Also added Py_INCREF_RET to avoid confusing use of comma operator.
remove 'type' argument, very few mathutils objects are wrapped,
add new function for creating wrapped objects.
also fixes unlikely memory leak if the data-array can't be allocated.
- fix for incorrect bmesh operator type-check for mapping slots.
- fix for python causing an assert when invalid args are given.
- fix memory leak with some exceptions.
