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.

remote: *** 914-

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:

nptl/tst-attr3 fails to build with GCC mainline because of
(deliberate) aliasing between the second (attributes) and fourth
(argument to thread start routine) arguments to pthread_create.
Although both those arguments are restrict-qualified in POSIX,
pthread_create does not actually dereference its fourth argument; it's
an opaque pointer passed to the thread start routine. Thus, the
aliasing is actually valid in this case, and it's deliberate in the
test. So this patch makes the test disable -Wrestrict for the two
pthread_create calls in question. (-Wrestrict was added in GCC 7,
hence the __GNUC_PREREQ conditions, but the particular warning in
question is new in GCC 8.)
Tested compilation with build-many-glibcs.py for aarch64-linux-gnu.
* nptl/tst-attr3.c: Include <libc-diag.h>.
(do_test) [__GNUC_PREREQ (7, 0)]: Ignore -Wrestrict for two tests.

* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/vfork.S: Branch to fork if
libpthread is loaded. Elide backwards compatibility code when not
required.
