Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-4920:
--------------------------------------
To fix this, I suggest we change build.xml to put generated docs in build/, not
docs/. The docs/ directory would be removed.
> do not keep forrest output in subversion

> Key: HADOOP-4920
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4920
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Doug Cutting
>
> We currently re-generate PDF and HTML documentation whenever we commit a
> documentation patch, which creates huge commit messages that few read. This
> was
> originally done so that folks who check out the sources from subversion did
> not
> need to install forrest in order to read the documentation.
> Note, this issue only concerns the versioned documentation included in trunk
> and releases, not the website, whose forrest output should continue to be
> kept in subversion.
