Building jruby from web-downloaded src fails
--------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-5838
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-5838
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Miscellaneous
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.6.2
Environment: win64/cygwin
Reporter: Xore Ander
Attachments: Constants.java
The ant tasks to build jruby require that the source is in a valid git
repository, ie if the source was downloaded from the website, builds will fail
build.xml, lines 195-200, 1736-1738
In an attempt to resolve JRUBY-5837, I installed git to my system and resumed
build attempts, but this yielded similar problems. My recommendations for this
are slightly different:
1) Pull the web download from the website, require that source is obtained via
git (do not like this option)
2) Bundle some good default .git configuration with the web download to enable
these calls to succeed. (still requires git is installed on the system)
3) Remove the git dependencies in the ant build (currently my solution, by
deleting lines 195-200 and 1734-1738) This may have some unknown (to me) effect
based on joda-time jar not being updated
4) Have a more graceful failure case. The current failure case is
non-intuitive. eg:
{quote}
$ ant clean && ant
