Improve informative message when .license file has been created
Source: #706
If you run the annotate command, you will be informed about that a .license file has been created:
$ reuse annotate -c me -l MIT --style=html test.svg
Successfully changed header of test.svg.license
It's not entirely obvious that a separate file has been created, even if a specific style has been chosen.
@niccokunzmann proposed the message Successfully changed header of test.svg.license because test.svg must not contain a REUSE header.
- Whenever you do not use --force-dot-format, this does not need to appear.
- I do not think that this needs to appear when the .license is used automatically
- But if I choose a style and you choose not apply it. I could value an error + message or the message above.
