dist-hook in top Makefile.am removes .svn
-----------------------------------------
Key: AXIS2C-1459
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2C-1459
Project: Axis2-C
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build system (Unix/Linux)
Affects Versions: 1.6.0, Current (Nightly)
Reporter: Olivier Mengué
Priority: Minor
The top Makefile.am contains the following lines:
dist-hook:
rm -rf `find $(distdir)/ -type d -name .svn`
...
This makes the process of creating patches of the build system unnecessary
harder, as it requires to have a separate checkout elsewhere.
I understand the need to avoid to have .svn directory in releases archives. But
the problem may be at a higher level: releases should not be made from an 'svn
checkout' but instead from an 'svn export' with controlled revision number (a
release tag), to avoid making a package using files which are missing from the
repository.
So please remove the 'rm .svn' line.
