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 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
Move non-ASCII contributor names from installed headers
into contrib.texi when possible, and when it's not (the
copyright notice in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/sys/user.h)
go back to ASCIIfied names. Problem reported by Joseph Myers in:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-08/msg00646.html
I've moved the MIPS port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy.
Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply
git mv ports/sysdeps/mips sysdeps/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/mips sysdeps/unix/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips
and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top
of ports/ChangeLog.mips similar to those in other files.
Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for mips is the
same before and after this patch (except for ld.so where paths in
assertions are involved, as for arm).

* sysdeps/mips/sys/regdef.h (t4,t5,t6,t7): Renamed to t0..t3 on
NewABI.
(ta0, ta1, ta2, ta3): Defined to t4..t7 on o32, and a4..a7 on
NewABI.
* sysdeps/mips/mips64/memcpy.S: Adjust register naming
conventions.
* sysdeps/mips/mips64/memset.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/unix/mips/sysdep.S (__syscall_error) [_LIBC_REENTRANT]:
Use t0 instead of t4 as temporary.
* sysdeps/mips/memcpy.S: Map t0-3 to a4-7 on new abis.
* sysdeps/mips/memset.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/mips/sys/regdef.h: Alias a4-7 or t0-3 to $8-11
depending on the ABI.

* manual/argp.texi: Remove ignored LGPL copyright notice; it's
not appropriate for documentation anyway.
* manual/libc-texinfo.sh: "Library General Public License" ->
"Lesser General Public License".

* All files under GPL/LGPL version 2: Place under LGPL version
2.1.
* Make-dist: If file is generated but still distributed the later
is correct.

* sysdeps/mips/sys/regdef.h: New file, enhanced versions of
deleted linux specific files.
