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
The padding bytes in the statsdata struct are not initialized, due to
which valgrind throws a warning:

mapping size even if it is bigger than the file size.
* nscd/mem.c (mempool_alloc): When resizing the file make sure the
limit in max_db_size is not exceeded. Don't use mremap, just
posix_fallocate is enough (according to Linus). Use posix_fallocate
correctly.

and add sanity checks for it.
