Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-14270:
-------------------------------------------
FWIW, a few bits of history:
* create-release and associated code was never intended by me to end up in
branch-2. I don't build or test against branch-2 and haven't in years. I have
no idea if the other build changes in trunk that aren't in branch-2 have any
impact.
* The maven commands and the order of operations in create-release were
specifically constructed to actually build *everything*. During
create-release's development, it was found that various combinations that we
had documented in various locations left many broken and incomplete HTML pages
when building the pages for the site. e.g., jdiff output
* We currently don't link a lot of content that we build, despite a lot of the
effort put into maintaining it. e.g., jdiff output
* It might be time to actually make three tarballs instead of two: src, bin,
docs. This is a relatively simple thing to do by manipulating the tar command
lines.
> HADOOP 2.8 Release tar ball size should be smaller

> Key: HADOOP-14270
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14270
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Reporter: Junping Du
> Priority: Critical
>
> In voting stage of 2.8.0, [~jojochuang] were reporting that 2.8.0 tar ball
> are 410 MB while previous release of 2.7.3 is just 205MB. [~andrew.wang] did
> some advanced investigations that most of added size are from src-html get
> included in tar.gz which is not necessary in release tar ball.
> I tried to manually build tar ball (using "mvn package -Pdist,native,docs,src
> -DskipTests -Dtar"), and the dist tar ball is still ~200MB. The only
> differences is we are using a new dev tool - create-release to create release
> bits since 2.8 and we should fix from there.
