## **Describe the Update**
contains files with signatures describing byte sequences somewhat similar to `libmagic` (but different). This data (under the open government license 3.0 if I am not mistaken) might be used to create filters that can be used to identify binary files in a quick and dirty way. This can be used to filter specific files and prevent them from being processed further by Scancode.
