Mark Miller commented on SOLR-4377: ----------------------------------- bq. This is also something that is not quite ASF kosher strictly speaking. I'm not sure that is the case. I think it comes down to the PMC for a particular project and what they decide to release. Regardless, I agree that it's a good goal. Before we can put in a check for it, we have to fix the current issue though. Eg, what are all the differences? I suspect the biggest issue is around svn subtitution variables (those $id's and such). That's the first thing I saw when I took a quick look. There where a bunch of them in test config files - I just zapped them. The more committers that start to use Git, the less these svn properties make sense (if they ever did - I've never liked them and I'm glad we have been removing them over time). In any event: +1 to finding the issues that make up the differences and addressing them +1 to adding a check about tags matching src releases I saw that right after the 4.1 tag, a couple quick commits went in - one for a spell fix in CHANGES and one a build issue - it made me unsure about whether we had released the tag, or a rev with the two fixes that happened right after. Of course I suspect we released the tag, but an automated smoke test would make me feel better about trusting that. > making release tarballs identical to the release tags > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-4377 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4377 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: scripts and tools > Affects Versions: 4.0, 4.1 > Reporter: Roman Shaposhnik > > Now that we're integrating Solr with Hadoop via the Apache Bigtop project it > is a bit of a nuisance to our build system that the release tarballs don't > quite match the SVN tags.
