Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:
https://reuse.software/faq/
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.
See P2788 for the script that automated these edits.

`SequencesMeta.new_movie()` API function caused meta strip to change
length. Similar issue has been fixed in transform code by checking
if `MetaStack` exists. `MetaStack` is not used when changing data in
python.
Provide `seqbase` to `SEQ_time_update_sequence()` so the function can
check if change happens inside of meta strip.
This patch also merges `seq_time_update_sequence_bounds()` into
`SEQ_time_update_sequence()`. This is because same issue applies for
both functions and it is confusing to have more time update
functions.re if this will lead anywhere.

Recently `SEQ_sort()` function was split so functionality is provided
on per-seqbase basis. After discussion about this split, it turned out,
that per-seqbase operation is only that should be provided, because
RNA API functions need to be able to access arbitrary seqbase
Remove recently introduced function `seq_sort_seqbase` and change
`SEQ_sort` function to operate on seqbase.

Splitting of effect strip alone wasn't handled properly. Previously
this resulted in duplicating effect strip, and it was broken at least
from 2.79.
Change in rB8ec6b34b8eb2 was intended to allow splitting strips
individually, so it can be used as RNA API function but also so it
requires as little glue logic as possible.
This is fixed by splitting all dependent strips at once in 2 separate
ListBases for left and right strips. Strips can be finally moved into
original `ListBase`.
With this fix it is still possible to split strips individually with
little glue logic. RNA API function could return list of split strips
as well, currently at least one strip in chain will be provided so
chain can be reconstructed on python side.

Move most functions into separate files.
File sequencer.c is reserved for alloc, free and duplicating functions.
There should be no functional changes.
