### License Headers
We require license headers on all Java files. With the exception of the
top-level `x-pack` directory, all contributed code should have the following
license header unless instructed otherwise:
/*
* Licensed to Elasticsearch under one or more contributor
* license agreements. See the NOTICE file distributed with
* this work for additional information regarding copyright
* ownership. Elasticsearch licenses this file to you under
* the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License"); you may
* not use this file except in compliance with the License.
* You may obtain a copy of the License at
*
* http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0
*
* Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing,
* software distributed under the License is distributed on an
* "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY
* KIND, either express or implied. See the License for the
* specific language governing permissions and limitations

*/
The top-level `x-pack` directory contains code covered by the [Elastic
license](licenses/ELASTIC-LICENSE.txt). Community contributions to this code are
welcome, and should have the following license header unless instructed
otherwise:
/*
* Copyright Elasticsearch B.V. and/or licensed to Elasticsearch B.V. under one
* or more contributor license agreements. Licensed under the Elastic License;
* you may not use this file except in compliance with the Elastic License.
*/
It is important that the only code covered by the Elastic licence is contained
within the top-level `x-pack` directory. The build will fail its pre-commit
checks if contributed code does not have the appropriate license headers.
> **NOTE:** If you have imported the project into IntelliJ IDEA the project will
> be automatically configured to add the correct license header to new source

For example, we have an hdfs test that uses mini-hdfs to test our
repository-hdfs plugin.
#### `x-pack`
Commercially licensed code that integrates with the rest of Elasticsearch. The
`docs` subdirectory functions just like the top level `docs` subdirectory and
the `qa` subdirectory functions just like the top level `qa` subdirectory. The
`plugin` subdirectory contains the x-pack module which runs inside the
Elasticsearch process. The `transport-client` subdirectory contains extensions
to Elasticsearch's standard transport client to work properly with x-pack.
