-
-The default license of this repository is the MIT License, but LICENSE files in
-subdirectories override the text of this LICENSE file for files in certain
-subdirectories. This allows us to keep all functionally related code together
-in the same repository.
-
-As a result, the code in this repository falls into three different license types:
-
-1 OSI OPEN SOURCE: the default MIT license (below) applies to the large majority of the code.
-  - this includes all code to build and use tools and libraries to
-    read and write the Genome Browser file formats, like bigBed and bigWig, and
-    the command line tools for these, bedToBigBed, wigToBigWig and the tagStorm
-    tools, the parasol job scheduler, tools to process out file formats, like
-    pslCDnaFilter, pslFilter, pslToChain, overlapSelect and featureBits and 
-    hundreds of others.
-  - also, patched third-party code from open-source projects bundled for
-    convenience, in src/htslib (MIT), and ./src/optimalLeaf (public domain,
-    with attribution).
-
-2 NON-COMMERCIAL UCSC: A non-commercial license from UC for the genome browser website code in
-  selected subdirectories of src/hg, see src/hg/LICENSE and https://genome-store.ucsc.edu/
-
-  - for source code under directories in src/hg:
-   cgilib hgApi hgCollection hgFileSearch hgFileUi hgGateway hgGene
-   hgGenome hgIntegrator hgPal hgPcr hgPhyloPlace hgPublicSessions hgSession
-   hgSuggest hgTables hgTrackUi hgTracks hgVai hgc hubApi near visiGene liftOver
-
-3 NON-COMMERCIAL Kent: A non-commercial license from Kent Informatics for the
-  BLAT code in src/blat/ and src/jkOwnLib/, see http://www.kentinformatics.com/
-
-  - for source code under directories: src/blat/ and src/jkOwnLib
-
-See https://genome.ucsc.edu/license/ for more details and on how to obtain a license for (2) and (3)
-
-The first line of all LICENSE files specifies the license for all files in subdirectories under it
-in SPDX format.
