This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together. Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to change bits that are part of our copyright header for that. hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a bit.

systemd-timesyncd will contact all configured system or

per-interface servers in turn until one is found that
|
|
responds. When the empty string is assigned, the list of
|

NTP servers is reset, and all assignments prior to this one

will have no effect. This setting defaults to an empty

Any per-interface NTP servers obtained from

take precedence over this setting, as do any servers set via

<varname>NTP=</varname> above. This setting is hence only used
|
|
if no other NTP server information is known. When the empty
|
|
string is assigned, the list of NTP servers is reset,
|
|
and all assignments prior to this one will have no effect.
|

If this option is not given, a compiled-in list of NTP servers

is used instead.</para></listitem>
