Should we not mention Creative Commons CC BY-SA 4.0 License in our license file but include the text?
Our license file (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/LICENSE) mentions
* All content residing under the "doc/" directory of this repository is licensed under "Creative Commons: CC BY-SA 4.0 license".
I'm curious why we don't have a hardcopy of this file in the gitlab/doc/LICENSE file (that file does not exist) and state the following in gitlab/LICENSE file
* All content that resides under the "doc/" directory of this repository, if that directory exists, is licensed under the license defined in "doc/LICENSE".
We do it like that for all the other folders, so why not for doc/? I would imagine the benefits would be that license scanners would pick it up more easily, so there is less risk involved for GitLab to have (accidental) violations?
ping @igorman in case you would know?
