5 The council has reached a majority for the following statement in [bug
6 Bug 611234 - Council vote: CVS headers and git expansion]
7
8 """
9 The council confirms its earlier decision (2014-10-14 meeting) to drop
10 CVS headers after migration to Git.
11
12 1) Any $Id$ and $Header$ lines are to be removed from ebuilds and
13 eclasses in the gentoo repository, as well as from other files, e.g.,
14 metadata, profiles, and files (except patches) in FILESDIR.
15
16 2) Removal should be done at once, and a repoman check should be
17 implemented to prevent such lines from accidentally being inserted again.
18
19 3) Infra is asked not to expand any $Id$ or other keywords, neither at
20 rsync generation time, nor via git attributes in the development
21 repository."
