@ndimiduk @busbey , both the creation of the `-r` option and the use of shared `objects` while cloning local repo, were part of [commit a9fefd7f533c](https://github.pie.apple.com/IPR/apache-hbase/commit/a9fefd7f533cf9bdb6369d7159ab0df3e01b357d) of PR #1725 (HBASE-24297 release scripts should be able to use an existing project clone). I didn't test with it. Parenthetically, I am confused by the `-r .git` idiom. If I understand the GIT_REPO usage properly, it needs to point at an actual repository, while `.git` is the usual name of the git account metadata directory. Why would I point `-r` at it? The processing code doesn't shed any light for me. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
