I'm attempting to upload a version of newlib to Debian and have discovered many files are missing copyright information. This makes it difficult to create an accurate record of information for the package. I built a tool to dig through GIT history to automatically associate copyright and license information to new files where possible, and to assign just copyright information from git author information where there was no licensing data in history. In a few cases, I went back to pre-git historical versions of the repository to figure out the licensing and copyright status. With these patches applied, I now have complete copyright information for all of the source code built into the library, I'm missing copyrights for some documentation and a couple of build scripts.
