Jan Lehnardt commented on COUCHDB-1183:
---------------------------------------
The file is copied verbatim from the CoffeeScript repository
(https://github.com/jashkenas/coffee-script/blob/master/extras/coffee-script.js)
I don't think compress at build time is a good idea since it adds the coffee
script build dependencies on top of our dependencies.
I'd be happy to maintain the uncompressed version, but it is not a single file
in the CoffeeScript repository. But I agree with your concerns about relying on
code in a third part repository, so I would propose to keep a full source copy
of the versions we bundle in http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/couchdb/vendor/
> Shouldn't coffee-script.js be available in non-compressed form ?

> actually coffee-script.js is provided in its compressed form in share/server.
> While the compression may be needed this is the only file provided like this.
> Also I think it's better to provide all sources from which CouchDB depends
> (and it may be an Apache concern too) so we don't rely on any third party to
> get full sources.
> What I propose is to make it available uncompressed, and at build compress
> it. While we are here we could probably do that or other too. Other solution
> may be to provide both format (compressed and uncompressed) in the archive
> and sources. Thoughts?
