Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1373:
--------------------------------------------

Ah, right - I see it now: missed on the first sight. Yup, looks legit. 
One improvement suggestions - might be done later: I see that only a few 
components in the new bigtop-github.mk will be taken off github. And the rest 
of the are still being downloaded from Apache site/mirrors. Hence and obvious 
improvement is to only keep github specific parts of the BOM in the new .mk 
file and simply use it to override definitions from the main bigtop.mk. Thus 
we'll avoid quite a big or unnecessary duplications and maintenance. What do 
you think?

> This was brought up here (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1363) 
> as a much wanted feature for our build system so we can build against 
> branches. I have two approaches to doing this that I'll be posting up Patch 
> files for and seeing which approach everyone likes better.
