BTW, I'd like to change copyright.el to _not_ do anything with patches/diffs
(as these often contain copyright strings, which you almost certainly do
_not_ want to update -- in fact the problem is usually the `before' half of
just such an update!).
Is it a better method to:
(1) copyright.el test whether (eq major-mode 'diff-mode)
or
(2) add a variable in copyright.el like `suppress-copyright-update', which
is make-variable-buffer-local and defaults to nil, and then change
diff-mode to set it to t
?
I'd guess the latter, but ...
Thanks,
-Miles
