+Every year newly updated files need to have its copyright headers updated to reflect the current year.
+If you run this script from src/ it will automatically update the year on the copyright header for all
+.cpp and .h files if these have a git commit from the current year.

+For example a file changed in 2014 (with 2014 being the current year):
+```// Copyright (c) 2009-2013 The Bitcoin developers```
+
+would be changed to:
+```// Copyright (c) 2009-2014 The Bitcoin developers```
