That gonna be very helpful, but I guess it only works on trunk, correct? At least many of the parameters you mentioned are not in create-release.sh of branch-2.
We may need to make a decision for this in branch-2. Honestly, I have little understanding about shell script related stuffs, if I cannot get help about fixing create-release.sh, I would prefer to revert both of HADOOP-12022/HADOOP-11792 from branch-2/branch-2.8 and adding CHANGES.txt manually. Would like to hear your thoughts. + Andrew/Akira who backported the two patches to branch-2, is it safe to revert the two patches? Are there any other dependency patches I need to take care?
