4.0.1 build fails - no RELEASE-NOTES.txt in git
Hi,
I've cloned poi from git, checked out 4.0.1, then do `ant dist', and get
this:
BUILD FAILED
/Users/fgunbin/src/poi-4.0.1/build.xml:2049: Warning: Could not find file /Users/fgunbin/src/poi-4.0.1/src/documentation/RELEASE-NOTES.txt to copy.
Seems that release-notes is missing from source, or am I doing something
wrong?
Thanks.

There's no mention of dist on that page, but ant's help target shows
..
- assemble Produce the zipped distribution files
- site Generate all documentation (Requires Apache Forrest)
- dist Create a distribution (Requires Apache Forrest)
From this description, `dist' looks as appropriate for a user..

The dist target is meant for the release manager. Please see https://poi.apache.org/devel/index.html where targets are documented. (I hope correctly.)

I see, thanks. It'd be nice to be able to build from git also (perhaps,
a git submodule for documentation directory?)

Just a usual habit of building everything (including docs) from
version-controlled sources :-)

Hi Filipp,
the documentation directory is a svn external, which is apparently not mirrored to github.
In case you would like verify the 4.0.1 build, the svn tag [1] should work ... hopefully.
Just out of curiosity, why are you trying to run "ant dist" on a released version?
