@gjacoby, Thank you very much for the explaination,
When I untar the apache-phoenix-4.14.3-HBase-1.4-src.tar.gz using tar (GNU tar) 1.23 under Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6, I got following warnings for every subdirectory: tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword `SCHILY.dev' tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword `SCHILY.ino' tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword `SCHILY.nlink' When I untared the same src tar.gz using WinRAR 3.7.0 under windows 7, I got "PaxHeader" directory in every subdirectory. Furthermore, when I untar apache-phoenix-4.14.2-HBase-1.4-src.tar.gz or other earlier versions in the same environment, I did not see the warnings or the "PaxHeader" directory.
