Xinli Shang commented on PARQUET-1992:
--------------------------------------
I think we shouldn't let it fail when developers run 'mvn package/install' or
'mvn verify' in any case if they don't make any changes. So I like the idea of
downloading directly. I will review the code once it passes the build.
> Cannot build from tarball because of git submodules

> Key: PARQUET-1992
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-1992
> Project: Parquet
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Gabor Szadovszky
> Priority: Blocker
>
> Because we use git submodules (to get test parquet files) a simple "mvn clean
> install" fails from the unpacked tarball due to "not a git repository".
> I think we would have 2 options to solve this situation:
> * Include all the required files (even only for testing) in the tarball and
> somehow avoid the git submodule update in case of executed in a non-git
> envrionment
> * Make the downloading of the parquet files and the related tests optional so
> it won't fail the build from the tarball
