I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.
The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:

Interpose malloc_usable_size to return the correct mcheck value for
malloc_usable_size.

Split the mcheck implementation into the debugging hooks and API so
that the API can be replicated in libc and libc_malloc_debug.so. The
libc APIs always result in failure.
The mcheck implementation has also been moved entirely into
libc_malloc_debug.so and with it, all of the hook initialization code
can now be moved into the debug library. Now the initialization can
be done independently of libc internals.
With this patch, libc_malloc_debug.so can no longer be used with older
libcs, which is not its goal anyway. tst-vfork3 breaks due to this
since it spawns shell scripts, which in turn execute using the system
glibc. Move the test to tests-container so that only the built glibc
is used.
This move also fixes bugs in the mcheck version of memalign and
realloc, thus allowing removal of the tests from tests-mcheck
exclusion list.
