Tom White commented on WHIRR-415:
---------------------------------
The tarball.url overload was a hack to get ideas on how to do this better!
Alex, your patch is much better.
However, the decision to use environment variables vs. properties is an
implementation detail, which I'm not sure is something the user cares about. (I
also worry about the ability to set arbitrary environment variables.) E.g. in
this case the setting should be "whirr.hadoop.repo=cdh3u1" or similar. Perhaps
we can just have another property for that?
> Let users specify the CDH release (cdh3u1, cdh3u2)
