Mike Javorski commented on CASSANDRA-850:
-----------------------------------------

Sorry.. I'm a bit late to the party (and did so because of the 6MB delta 
download git just pulled).  Wouldn't managing the ivy.xml and the NOTICES file 
in concert meet the ASF legal requirements? You could run ivy-retrieve as part 
of the dist process and eliminate the requirement for ant and ivy for the end 
user, and still get the benefits on the development side.

On a related note (and I realize this doesn't effect the official SVN users),  
git users will get a nice jump in repo size every time there is a lib change 
with this route. Shouldn't be a regular occurrence, but if it's easily avoided, 
why not make it "nicer"

I am happy to take a crack at a patch to this effect if there is interest.
