Hi devs, Over on HBASE-20153[1] I put up a patch to include error-prone[2] compiler checks on precommit. Wanted to send out a note to the dev list to make sure people saw it and understood what was happening, and so there would be less surprise if things start failing.
Over the past several months, a few developers have been toiling at getting these additional bugs out of our code. Let's respect their efforts and help make sure bugs don't creep back in by adding them to precommit. Important things to be aware of: * We do more checking and analysis, so it slows compilation down ~5 minutes for the whole project. * The error messages usually have links to a wiki page explaining what is wrong, so they're not that scary. * You can run your build with -PerrorProne to get the same locally If there are concerns, please let me know before this is pushed!
