Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-12257:
-------------------------------------------
bq. part of init is detecting the branch and changing, right?
Yup. It's all the setup work that happens prior to anything actually changing
on the repo.
bq. calling "branch" something like "validate" will help folks coming from
maven. I'm curious if it would hinder ant/gradle/autoconf/whatever.
While we're using the term 'branch' today even in the existing code, it doesn't
have to stay that way. But anyway, it's called branch to reflect the state of
the repo: "this is the copy of source from the branch". Log files are written
such that they are xyz-testname.log, where xyz is either branch or patch. Then
tests can compare branch vs. patch and do whatever.
bq. Do you have notes already about how the proposed lifecycle matches up on
the non-java build tools?
Not yet. Let me write up something regarding the current state of my dev tree
and it might make more sense. :)
