Files with license info not being detected

Here's an example of a file with the MIT license (https://clearlydefined.io/file/2893c762b244363021756d2bfa004c1402eb641a7b02a4cea8bd37ebddcf68c1) where ClearllyDefined did not flag it as a file with license info and therefore, did not include "MIT" in the "discovered" field.


Unclear why scancode wasn't run on this?

Could also get license info by following "Source" link to commit - LICENSE file = MIT.

Start with the ClearlyDefined file linked in the report and trace the crawler's license-detection path, including why scancode was not run. Compare the result with the linked source commit's LICENSE file. Done means the file is detected as containing license information and MIT appears in the discovered field.
