Steve Loughran created HADOOP-9457:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: add an SCM-ignored XML filename to keep secrets in 
(auth-keys.xml?)
                 Key: HADOOP-9457
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9457
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: build
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Steve Loughran
            Priority: Minor


to avoid accidentally checking in secrets, I keep auth keys for things like AWS 
in file called {{auth-keys.xml}} alongside the {{test/resources/core-site.xml}} 
file, then XInclude them. I also have a global gitignore set up ignore files 
with that name.

I propose having a standard name for XML files containing such secrets (we 
could use auth-keys.xml or something else, and set up 
{{hadoop-trunk/.gitignore}} and {{svn:ignore}} to ignore them. That way, nobody 
else will check them in by accident
