Are you referring to the tip at http://reactos.com/wiki/index.php/Best_practices_for_working_with_branches? I didn't consider copyright when I wrote this tip. I only considered it to be a solution to a technical problem I encountered during development of the new build system. There was some files on the branch which had nothing in common with files in the trunk except the filename and path, so I got merge conflicts every time I merged changes from trunk where these files were changed on trunk. Also, this tip only applies to branches other than trunk. Maybe I should make that more clear. If it is a problem with copyright, we should remove this tip.
