X Title: Fix URLs that were redirecting to another license by EliahKagan · Pull Request #1662 · gitpython-developers/GitPython

Description: All the opensource.org BSD license URLs at the top of source code files in this project had originally pointed to a page on the 3-clause BSD license that this project used and continues to use. But over time the site was apparently reorganized and the link became a redirect to the page about the 2-clause BSD license. Because it is identified only as the "BSD license" in the comments in this project that contain the links, this unfortunately makes it so those top-of-file comments all wrongly claim that the project is 2-clause BSD licensed. To be more specific, bisecting archivals reveals that the change apparently occurred sometime between 29 April 2011 and 5 June 2011. This fixes the links by replacing them with the current URL of the opensource.org page on the 3-clause BSD license. The current URL contains "bsd-3-clause" in it, so this specific problem is unlikely to recur with that URL (and even if it did, the text "bsd-3-clause is information that may clue readers in to what is going on). There may be other changes that could be made in the future to further clarify the license. For example, in setup.py, the license name is passed as BSD. There may be a more specific name that can be used and that PyPI and/or common tools will recognize for the 3-clause BSD license name. (If any SPDX name can be used, which I think it can, then this is definitely so. However, a more specific classifier does not appear available.) But that's not actually a bug--it's not referring to a specific different license--and this PR does not make any such changes. Other than how I permitted my editor to remove trailing whitespace in the files it was saving, this pull request is strictly limited to updating those URLs. This also affects numerous URLs in gitdb, for which I have opened gitpython-developers/gitdb#96. It does not affect smmap.
