It is seen as good service to include the text of the license in a separate
file in the sources.

And you really should add copyright-notices to all handwritten source-files
regardless of their triviality. Mostly because former trivial files might
become non-trivial files and adding a copyright-notice afterwards is kind of
like changing the license: It is easy if you are the only one who has edited
that file ever, but becomes a (legal) nightmare if others modified the file too.
So best make it very clear what license a file is right from the beginning.
Some projects even have hooks in the commit-system that warn when adding files
without license-statement.

:-) Skip the thoughts about binaries in the version control. And add a file
named INSTALL where you write that ant-line and some explaination...

Have fun,
