When contributing a theme to Drupal.org, do I include LICENSE.txt?

Posted by bryanbraun on December 22, 2012 at 6:51pm

I understand that contributing a theme to Drupal.org causes it to be licensed under the GPL, as Drupal is. With that in mind, do I need to explicitly put a LICENSE.txt file in the theme containing the license information?

I searched all over for the answer to this, and just found it.

From the http://drupal.org/node/1587704, item 4.1:

Ensure the repository does not contain a ‘LICENSE.txt’ file. Do not include a LICENSE.txt file in your repository. Drupal.org will add the appropriate version automatically during packaging.
