Campbell Barton 81025eabd2 Refactor: various changes to "make license"
- Avoid manipulating a dictionary arguments, use return values &
  iterators to return results.
- Move logic out of the file reading context once the file was read
  (reducing right-shift).
- Move intermediate license data from a dictionary to a named-tuple
  for better clarity & type safety.
- Remove use of `dataclass` as a container for constants,
  as it quite clear to define the constants directly in the
  global namespace.
- Group imports at the beginning of the file (no need to quiet pylint).
- Add headings for code sections.
- Use double quotes.
- Use the term "dir" instead of both dir/folder.
- Note the limitations parsing CMake files directly,
  with a possible alternative.

Blender Dev Tools
#################

This repository is intended for miscellaneous tools, utilities, configurations and
anything that helps with Blender development, but aren't directly related to building Blender.

Some of the tools included may be used stand-alone, others expect Blenders source code to be available.


Usage
=====

While this is a stand-alone repository,
some of the scripts which access Blenders source code assume this repository will be located at
``tools`` within Blenders source code repository. At some point this may be included as a submodule.

Some tools also rely on the ``blender`` binary, this is assumed to be located at: ``../../blender.bin``.
*The root directory of Blender's git repository*


Categories
==========

Check Source
------------

Any tools for scanning source files to report issues with code, style, conventions, deprecated features etc.


Config
------

Configuration for 3rd party applications (IDE's, code-analysis, debugging tools... etc).


Git
---

Scripts and utilities for working with git.


Utils
-----

Programs (scripts) to help with development
(currently for converting formats, creating mouse cursor, updating themes).
