  • Thanks for your answer. I gather that the file I am interested in (the git-filter-repo file), is provided under the MIT License. What are my obligations as a user of this file if I wanted to use it as a subprocess/library/source? Commented Dec 23, 2024 at 4:56

    @SuhasSrivastava The MIT License is fairly easy to read and understand. If there is anything specific in the MIT License where you need explanations, then please ask a new question. Commented Dec 23, 2024 at 9:09
  • I was a bit surprised to read "different parts that are provided under different licenses" where one of licenses is the GPL. Having looked at the COPYING file for git-filter-repo, it seems the only GPL code is in tests, which the MIT code is likely not derived from. Just posting here in case anyone else has a double take on that sentence. Commented Jan 16 at 17:14
