Good point. 2 comments on this approach:
1.) I was trying to be overly cautious since some have argued that the
GPL license applies to the entire distribution, rather than an
individual file/code section.
2.) This approach makes the most sense - we (I) just need to remember
to import the entire unchanged file into git first, and then make any
local modifications (if necessary) in a separate commit. Don't know
if there is a place to document this or if this is something we just
need to self-police.
