Copyright 2004, 2007, 2013 TeX Users Group. You may freely use, modify and/or distribute this file. This tree (texmf-dist) contains the packages and their documentation and support files which are distributed by TeX Live. The binaries and TL infrastructure files themselves are in separate directories (bin/ and tlpkg/ respectively), but just about everything else we distribute is here. Files generated during installation or use are in separate texmf-config and texmf-var. TeX Live started with just one tree (named texmf); over time, it was split into other trees (texmf-dist, texmf-doc) for reasons that seemed good at the time, but as of TeX Live 2013, it seemed simplest to once again have only one main tree. We kept the name texmf-dist instead of going back to texmf since the "-dist" explicitly signals that it is the files that are distributed.
