Hey all, We've started (or will very soon start) committing patches to a github repo for the snapshot branch (https://github.com/jyates/hbase/tree/snapshots, likely other forks coming). I've added a component for snapshots to the jira. I'm considering adding a version (likely the 'hbase-6055' version/branch) so that when snapshot sub-issues get committed to the branch, we resolve with that fix version and not have to worry about muddling the main '0.96' release version until it is merged in. If for some reason if this doesn't make 0.96, we wouldn't have to do a jira cleanup pass. If it does, we just add the 0.96 fix version to all those issues.
Does this seem ok? Does the name I'm suggesting seem good? (I considered 'snapshots' but this is confusing IMO because of SNAPSHOT versions and I didn't want to tie it to a particular version). Thanks, Jon. -- // Jonathan Hsieh (shay) // Software Engineer, Cloudera // j...@cloudera.com
