This could happen for several jobs with changed configuration, compile
and test parameters.
+There are different types of jobs: 'prep-image-base' is responsible to
+prepare the environment for the following jobs. 'build-image-*' jobs
+are responsible to compile Emacs in different configuration. The
+corresponding 'test-*' jobs run the ert tests.
+
+A special job is 'test-all-inotify', which runs 'make check-expensive'.
+While most of the jobs run as soon as a respective file has been
+committed into the Emacs git repository, this test job runs scheduled,
+every 8 hours.
+
+The log files for every test job are kept on the server for a week.
+They can be downloaded from the server, visiting the URL

Do this by running the 'admin/update-copyright' script on a fresh repo
checkout. Inspect the results for plausibility, then commit them.
+You should also run the etags test suite in test/manual/etags/. It
+will most probably fail because the contents of the test files changes

There's no need to worry about whether an individual file has changed
in a given year - it's sufficient that Emacs as a whole has changed.
