Created attachment 195256 [details] patch This simple patch is needed in order to run the "Fix Copyrights" tool on the SWT source. Without this patch, way too many files are flagged as needing copyright dates updated, when in fact many of these files are unchanged. The background story is that in 2009 we automated our build process, and on one occasion, an error in the build script accidentally deleted all of SWT from HEAD. It was committed back to HEAD immediately after the error was discovered, however all SWT files then received a new commit date of 09-07-01. This patch simply says that if the last commit comment is "restore HEAD after accidental deletion" then ignore the file (it is unchanged).
