Dima Spivak commented on HBASE-12808:
-------------------------------------

Sure, that's fine, [~apurtell], The tool itself can take two positional 
arguments specifying Git references (which can be tags, branches, or particular 
commit hashes), so for each RC, you'd just need the RC script to specify the 
correct versions. This version has the "after" default to master, but that can 
be changed to match whatever branches you guys want to commit this to.

> Use Java API Compliance Checker for binary/source compatibility

> Following [~busbey]'s suggestion in HBASE-12556, I've spent some time playing 
> with the [Java API Compliance 
> Checker|http://ispras.linuxbase.org/index.php/Java_API_Compliance_Checker] 
> and think it would be a great addition to /dev-support. I propose that we use 
> it to replace the JDiff wrappers we currently have there (since it does what 
> JDiff does and more), and look into putting up automation at 
> builds.apache.org to run the tool regularly (e.g. latest release of a 
> particular branch vs. latest commit of that same branch).
