PHP-CS-Fixer: how to remove header DocBlock comments

Question

By mistake I've added DocBlock comments to my files:

/**
 * @author      My Name <[email protected]>
 * @copyright   Copyright (C) 2012 - 2015 My App. All rights reserved.
 * @license     Some notes about the license.
 */

But this si wrong as I want the header comments set like those:

/*
 * This file is part of the My App.
 *
 * Copyright My Name 2012-2016.
 *
 * This code is to consider private and non disclosable to anyone for whatever reason.
 * Every right on this code is reserved.
 *
 * @author My name <[email protected]>
 */

Now, I've added the header comment using PHP-CS-Fixer but now, how can I remove the old ones?

Answer 1

Using friendsofphp/php-cs-fixer:^2.0.0, the header comment can be removed entirely using the following configuration:

$config = PhpCsFixer\Config::create()->setRules([
    'header_comment' => [
        'header' => '',
    ],
]);

Note how we provide an empty string.
