Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-848:
-------------------------------------------
[~bmahe], git archive is an appealing feature to use, however github nor ASF
git mirror doesn' support {{git archive}} from outside it seems. Github though
provides a custom URL to download an archive for a branch.
So, the only alternative to Phil's approach - which might be a bit sub-optimal
performance-wise because of the repo cloning - is to provide custom URLs that
let you download an archive directly e.g.
{{https://github.com/apache/hadoop-common/archive/branch-2.zip}}. However, this
seems to be impracticle because different servers will have different URL
patterns.
