Обсуждение: Do we need to update copyright for PG11 branch

hi, all

  Recently, I found the copyright info for PG11 branch still is "Portions
Copyright (c) *1996-2018*, PostgreSQL Global Development Group". Do we need
to update it?

  regards, ChenBo

No, that's not our practice.

We technically only update in back branches:

    ./doc/src/sgml/legal.sgml in head and back branches
    ./COPYRIGHT in back branches
