The recent release source does not contain the repo's .gitignore file. This is definitely not a major issue, but I wanted to bring it up so it could be added in future releases.
I downloaded the source from: https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi?path=/kafka/0.9.0.0/kafka-0.9.0.0-src.tgz Thanks, Grant -- Grant Henke Software Engineer | Cloudera gr...@cloudera.com | twitter.com/gchenke | linkedin.com/in/granthenke
