[jira] Created: (LUCENE-1294) Jar manifest should not contain ${user.name} of the person building

Jar manifest should not contain ${user.name} of the person building
-------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LUCENE-1294
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1294
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Grant Ingersoll
            Assignee: Grant Ingersoll
            Priority: Trivial


Not sure if it is a big deal, but I don't particularly like that my user id for my build machine is in the manifest of the JAR that I constructed.  It's a stretch, security-wise, I know, but I don't see how it serves any useful purpose.  We have signatures/logs/SVN tags so we know who built the particular item w/o needing to know what their local user account name is.

The fix is:

{code}

I too always felt this a feature, albeit a minor one.

[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1294) Jar manifest should not contain ${user.name} of the person building

Posted by "Hoss Man (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.

Hoss Man commented on LUCENE-1294:
----------------------------------

FWIW: I included it originally because i've definitely seen value in the past when you can look at an artifact and ask "who built this? where did it come from?" ... maybe not so much for official releases but i've been in enough positions where organizations build their own artifacts from source and later you want to know who built it so you can double check with them how they did it (because you think they screwed something up)

I believe maven actually forcibly puts the build user in every manifest file, so it's not like we were in bleeding edge territory or anything.
