-------------------------------------

             Summary: Do not use within-repository folders for any 
build-related activity
                 Key: COR-22
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COR-22
             Project: Corinthia
          Issue Type: Improvement
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Dennis E. Hamilton


When building from the source, all transient data, including downloads of 
externals, should happen separate from the source-code repository working copy.

The repository working copy may be in a location that is not suitable for 
writing.  It may also be a performance bottleneck to use the same location as 
the working repository for transient build-related material.  There may also be 
storage-limitation considerations.

Ideally, a build directory can be created anywhere and all build activities 
conduction in that location, separate from the source-code repository.  One 
complication is any downloading of external sources and libraries, and how 
those can be included in any build of the source tree.
