To accommodate a new syntax-check rule, ...
Adjust copyright notices that suggested to write to an old
Franklin Street address to reference the URL instead:
git grep -l 'if not, write' |xargs \
perl -0777 -pi -e 's{program; if not, write .*? USA\.}{program. If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.}ms'
Also, run this:
git grep -l 'License along$' | xargs \
perl -0777 -pi -e 's{License along\n# with}{License\n# along with}ms'
to normalize a little more, changing comments like this:

* cfg.mk (srcdirslash): New macro.
(in_vc_files): Use it to avoid problems when srcdir is '.'.
Also look for copyright dates in shell script *.in files,
so that ‘zgrep --version’ etc. outputs current dates.
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, gzip.c, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in:
* zforce.in, zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
Update copyright date in --version output to 2022.
Run "make update-copyright" and then...
* gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted.
* tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year.
* bootstrap: Likewise.
Run "make update-copyright" and then...
* gnulib: Update to latest with copyright year adjusted.
* tests/init.sh: Sync with gnulib to pick up copyright year.
* bootstrap: Likewise.
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, gzip.c, zcat.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in, zgrep.in:
* zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
Update copyright year in --version output to 2018.
This part of the year-number update isn’t automated yet.
Problem reported by Bruno Haible (Bug#29266#20).
* NEWS: Mention this.
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in:
* zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
Use printf instead of echo if the argument might contain ‘\’, at
least in theory. Don’t assume printf exits with status 1 on
failure; it might be some other positive status.
* gzexe.in: Use printf consistently instead of echo, and
proscribe it instead of echo.
* NEWS: Document this.
* gzexe.in, gunzip.in, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zegrep.in:
* zfgrep.in, zforce.in, zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
Remove support for undocumented --__bindir option. Callers can
set PATH instead; that's less error-prone. This fixes some
'make check' failures on my Solaris 11 box, which occurred
because the test scripts were mistakenly testing the installed
gzip rather than the gzip in the working directory.
* Makefile.am (.in): Don't replace bindir.
(check-local): Set PATH instead of using --__bindir.
* tests/help-version (gunzip_setuphelp, gzexe_setuphelp)
(zcat_setuphelp, zcmp_setuphelp, zdiff_setuphelp)
(zegrep_setuphelp, zfgrep_setuphelp, zforce_setuphelp)
(zgrep_setuphelp, zless_setuphelp, zmore_setuphelp)
(znew_setuphelp): Remove. All uses removed.
(lbracket_setup): Default args to empty.
This follows up on the earlier patch to avoid data loss near the
system crashes. It makes the new behavior optional, with the
default off. See: http://bugs.gnu.org/22768
* NEWS, doc/gzip.texi (Sample, Invoking gzip), gunzip.in (usage):
* gzip.1, zcat.in (usage):
Document this.
* gzip.c (synchronous): New static var.
(SYNCHRONOUS_OPTION): New constant.
(longopts, help, main, treat_file): Add support for --synchronous.
Run "make update-copyright" and then...
* gzip.c: Transform the copyright notice via s/2015/2016/.
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* tests/init.sh: Update from gnulib.
* bootstrap: Likewise.
The copyright year ranges in *.in files were not being updated,
because of a missing ", Inc." suffix. Add that, run
run "make udpate-copyright", and ensure 2010..2015 year
ranges are covered.
* gunzip.in: Update copyright notice and year ranges.
* gzexe.in: Likewise.
* zcat.in: Likewise.
* zdiff.in: Likewise.
* zforce.in: Likewise.
* zgrep.in: Likewise.
* zless.in: Likewise.
* zmore.in: Likewise.
* znew.in: Likewise.
gzip now accepts the --keep (-k) option, for consistency with tools
like xz, lzip and bzip2. With this option, gzip no longer removes
named input files when compressing and decompressing.
* doc/gzip.texi: Document it.
* gzip.1: Likewise.
* gunzip.in: Likewise.
* NEWS: Likewise.
* gzip.c: Add support for "--keep".
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in:
* zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
A script went awry when updating copyright dates in gzip's shell
scripts. It should update comments to look like "# Copyright (C)
2007, 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc." (with a set of years)
and version messages to look like "Copyright (C) 2010 Free
Software Foundation, Inc." (with just the most-recent year).
Instead, it sometimes ignored one, sometimes the other, and
typically put ranges into version messages. Fix all this stuff by
hand, using dates that I divined from the change logs (so they're
a bit more accurate than script-generated dates). We need to fix
the script before it runs in 2011.
consistency with other substitutions.
(check-local): Use --__bindir . rather than setting GZIP_BINDIR=.,
to allay security concerns voiced by Joerg Lehners in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2007-04/msg00003.html>.
* gunzip.in, gzexe.in, zcat.in, zcmp.in, zdiff.in, zegrep.in, zfgrep.in:
* zforce.in, zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
Support --__bindir rather than GZIP_BINDIR.
* gunzip.in, zcat.in, zcmp.in: Support --help and --version
directly, to avoid some confusion in help and version output.
Problem reported by Eric Blake in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gzip/2007-04/msg00006.html>.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add them.
(bin_SCRIPTS, MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Add gunzip, zcat, zcmp, zdgrep, zfgrep.
(.in): Use GZIP_BINDIR as the location of gzip binaries, if it is set.
(check-local): Use GZIP_BINDIR.
(install-exec-hook, remove-installed-links): Make 'uncompress' an
alias for gunzip.
* gzexe.1: At least one arg is required. Don't give cat as an
example, since gzexe refuses to compress cat due to a bootstrapping
issue. List more utilities in this category.
* gzexe.in, zdiff.in, zforce.in, zgrep.in, zless.in, zmore.in, znew.in:
Report our name in usage.
* gzexe.in: Don't compress bash. Don't use rmdir, so it's
OK to compress rmdir.
* gzip.c: Now requires that you compile with -DGNU_STANDARD=0 to
get non GNU-standard behavior. We now build with GNU-standard
behavior by default, so that programs do not depend on the names
of their executables.
* zdiff.in: Don't depend on the name of the executable, as per
GNU standard. Instead, rely on an internal --__cmp option.
Support ' in options. Check for failures in subsidiary gzip
invocations.
* zgrep.1: Clarify compression issues.
* zgrep.in: Don't assume POSIX-style case syntax. Remove unused var
have_optarg.
* zless.1: zless sets LESSMETACHARS now.
