Bruno Mahé commented on BIGTOP-848:
-----------------------------------

{quote}The 3rd i am unsure on whether we should use git archive because bigtop 
is wierd. If you look in the bigtop.mk. We pull down the -src.tar.gz but then 
rename it to just .tar.gz and then the hadoop SPEC file expects the tarball and 
expects to cd into -src. So there is alot of sillyness going on there with 
src/dst.{quote}

# git archive enables you to pick the root directory within the archive
# git archive would save you 5 lines of bash easily
# If my memory is right, some packaging tools expect the standard convention 
<NAME>-<VERSION>, so we have to rename it. But then, the content of the package 
still has the <NAME>-<VERSION>-src root directory. As Roman pointed out, feel 
free to send a patch to improve this situation.
