Where does source actually come from ?

Hi bigtop !

I noticed that there are 2 locations of bigtop dependencies:

1) The pom.xml file

2) The explicit links in "bigtop.mk"

So in the end, what is bigtop pulling the actual jar file used in the
distirbution from?

I ask this because, looking at hue, it was interesting: It is in not in the
maven pom.xml , and references the cloudera/archives github repository for
the source in the mk file.

thanks sean. but im wondering , then, why there is a maven definition of
the sources (in pom.xml) as well as bigtop.mk.

Who is really doing the download and where?

Thanks !

bigtop.mk links to the source distribution, and when you build packages
those sources are downloaded, built, and the JARs that get built are
included in the packages that then get hosted. Since Bigtop does not, as a
rule, patch upstream projects, these JARs are identical (in theory,
anyway), to the JARs another project might get if it were to download the
JARs for that component using Maven.
