Suresh Srinivas commented on HADOOP-8924:
-----------------------------------------
Looking at the code VersionInfo.java code looks like it can be improved. It has
_get* instance methods and get* static methods. These static methods are hidden
by other classes that extend this class. Is it not possible to use one
implementation of VersionInfo? All that I see different between variants of
this class is how they decide on the properties file to read. So instead of
passing {{component}} name in the constructor, can the properties name be
passed?
In pom.xml file, the change where in resources *-version-info.properties seems
to be both included and excluded. Adding a brief comment on why this is being
done will help understanding.

> Currently, the build process relies on saveVersion.sh to generate
> package-info.java with a version annotation. The sh binary may not be
> available on all developers' machines (e.g. Windows without Cygwin). This
> issue tracks removal of that dependency in Hadoop Common.
