Hi, Are there any instructions on how to build Hadoop from source? Now that the project seems to have been split into separate projects (common, hdfs, and mapreduce), there are 3 separate repositories under svn. Information on this page is no longer correct: http://hadoop.apache.org/core/version_control.html
I checked out all the three repos and tried building them with "ant". Even though the builds happened without errors, I'm not sure how do I get a single hadoop tarball release (similar to hadoop-0.20.0.tar.gz from the website) from there? Also is the latest trunk of mapreduce supposed to work with the latest trunk of common and hdfs or will it only work with specific versions of common and hdfs?
