MIT isn’t copyleft.

If you want to include an MIT licensed work in your project, your obligation is to say “I am using $foo, here is a copy of the MIT licence: $text”, and that’s it.

If you want to include a GPL licensed work in your project, your project is now also GPL licensed, and you are obliged to make the source available.

(I’m not a lawyer etc.)
