 # (C) 2023 GoodData Corporation

+# The canonical FOSSA configuration lives in .github/workflows/fossa.yaml,
+# which generates a per-package .fossa.yml on each scan and uploads to one
+# FOSSA project per published artifact (gooddata-sdk, gooddata-pandas, ...).
+#
+# This anchor file exists so that running `fossa analyze` locally without
+# arguments has a sane default. It points at the legacy roll-up project
+# (gooddata-python-sdk) on purpose — local ad-hoc runs go to the legacy
+# project so they cannot accidentally pollute the per-package projects.

-# (FOSSA's pdm strategy reports declared deps); the gooddata-api-client setup.py
-# is read by setuptools. Internal helpers (tests-support, scripts) are excluded.
