+1. Based on some discussion quite a while ago on Matrix/IRC we went
with BSD-2-Clause for Keysmith.

The general idea that we sort of settled on was GPLv3 or later for
"code" (cpp, h, qml), BSD-2-Clause for "build scripts" (CMake, qrc,
message extraction scripts, Android manifest), CC-1.0 for trivial
files (.gitignore) as well as generic metadata files (*.desktop,
*.appdata.xml) and test data, and finally CC-BY-SA-4.0 for icons and
similar resources (artworks). IIRC the reasons for applying CC-1.0 to
the *.desktop and *.appdata.xml had to do with them being processed by
third-party tooling like bundling/compiling to other forms that meant
anything else was probably inappropriate.
