---------------------------------------

             Summary: create_source_release pollutes flink root directory
                 Key: FLINK-9748
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9748
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Release System
    Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.6.0
            Reporter: Chesnay Schepler


The {{create_source_release.sh}} moves generated files into the root directory 
of the flink repository, and also creates the flink-clone in this directory.

It would be nicer if these files were placed under a dedicated directory (say 
releasing/release).
This would prevent file to prevent release files from accidentally being 
committed by adding  this directory to the {{.gitignore}} file, and makes it 
easier to cleanup a failed release attempt by actually making it obvious which 
files belong to the release.

I already implemented these changes in the {{flink-shaded}} release scripts.
