Eric Yang commented on HADOOP-7554:
-----------------------------------
The main idea is to reduce complex steps in maven to a batch set of build
instructions. It also helps packaging of multiple type friendly. Hence,
-Prpm, -Pdeb are more complex but consistent.
Both HBase and Hadoop are setup to use profiles for packaging. Like Alejandro
said, the packaging logic has a common parent, hence packaging code are
inherited from the same pom to reduce repetitiveness. Besides, -Ptar is
shorter to type than assembly:single.
> Use 'assembly' rather than '-Ptar' for creating the tarball

> AFAIK assembly is the way to create artifacts - currently we use profiles
> (-Ptar or -Pbintar).
> MapReduce uses assembly via MAPREDUCE-279.
> I'd like to see a common way across the whole project. Thoughts?
